    The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) secured a clear lead in the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) by-elections on Wednesday, winning seven of the 12 wards that went to polls. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) won three seats, while the Congress and the All India Forward Bloc (AIFB) claimed one seat each.

    Voter Turnout Was Lower Than 2022 Election 

    Polling for the 12 wards was held on November 30. Of these, nine seats were previously held by the BJP, while the remaining three were with the AAP. The voter turnout stood at 38.51%, comparatively lower than the 50.47% recorded during the 2022 civic body elections.

    AAP’s Anil secured victory in the Mundka ward, strengthening the party’s tally to three. Congress won the Sangam Vihar-A ward through candidate Suresh Chaudhary, who credited his win to “work-based campaigning.” The AIFB opened its account with a win in one ward.

    The State Election Commission set up 10 counting centres across the city, including Kanjhawala, Pitampura, Bharat Nagar, Civil Lines, Rouse Avenue, Dwarka, Najafgarh, Gole Market, Pushp Vihar and Mandawali.
