BJP celebrates win in Chandigarh Mayoral poll

Chandigarh: 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 Ba-bla 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 alli-ance 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 pro-gress 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.”

Sanjay Tandon, Member of the BJP National Council, echoed a sentiment, adding, “We are ex-tremely happy with this win. This victory in the mayoral race confirms that we will also win in the Delhi Assembly polls.”
