BJP Wins Six of Seven Rajasthan Mayoral Polls Despite Congress Ward LeadsPreviousNext

In Rajasthan's recent municipal corporation elections, the Congress emerged as the largest party in Ajmer and Pali but lost the mayoral posts to the BJP, which secured key support from independent councillors. BJP candidates Anamika Sharma in Ajmer and Namita Bubakia in Pali won mayoral elections despite Congress winning more wards. Congress retained Bikaner with Anil Kalla as mayor. BJP also won mayoral posts in Udaipur, Alwar, Bharatpur, and Bhilwara, consolidating its position in six of seven major municipal corporations.
