AAP and Congress Win One Seat Each in Ludhiana MC Finance Committee Election
The Ludhiana Municipal Corporation held elections for two vacant Finance and Contracts Committee seats, resulting in victories for AAP's Yuvraj Sidhu and Congress's Gaurav Bhatti. Voting was conducted by secret ballot, with Yuvraj receiving the highest first-preference votes. AAP's Aman Bagga, despite expectations, did not secure a seat. The election followed Punjab and Haryana High Court directives, with Mayor Inderjit Kaur affirming the process's fairness. Allegations of cross-voting and political maneuvering were noted but not confirmed.
