BJP celebrates victory in Chandigarh Mayoral election, eyes Delhi Assembly win
The atmosphere outside the Municipal Corporation office in Sector 17, Chandigarh, was electric as BJP workers celebrated their party’s triumph in the mayoral election, with Harpreet Kaur Babla emerging victorious with 19 votes. The win was met with joy and optimism, with BJP leaders confident that it signals a broader electoral victory for the party.
Chandigarh BJP President Jatinder Pal Malhotra expressed his elation, stating, “This victory is for every BJP worker and every citizen of Chandigarh. It’s a decisive win over the unholy alliance that was trying to portray themselves as the city’s leaders.
“This is a victory for the people. When corruption within the AAP-led administration was exposed, councillors realised the need for a change. They chose a BJP mayor to ensure the city’s progress and address issues like unpaid salaries and unallocated development funds. This victory paves the way for a brighter future — and a BJP win in Delhi Assembly elections as well.”
