BJP Dominates Delhi MCD By-Elections, AAP Makes Inroads
NEW DELHI: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) emerged victorious in the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) by-elections, securing seven out of the twelve wards contested on November 30th. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) managed to win three seats, while Congress and the Left party each claimed one ward.
The by-elections were held to fill vacancies across twelve wards, nine of which were previously held by the BJP and three by AAP. The State Election Commission reported a voter turnout of 38.51%, a drop compared to the 50.47% recorded during the 2022 MCD elections encompassing 250 wards.
Counting took place at ten centers across Delhi, including Kanjhawala, Pitampura, and Dwarka. While the BJP retained a majority of the seats, the AAP’s performance suggests a growing challenge to the ruling party’s dominance in the capital’s municipal affairs. The results are being closely analyzed for their potential implications on future Delhi elections.
