Delhi MCD Polls: BJP Poised for Mayoral Win as AAP Bows Out

The BJP is set to comfortably reclaim the reins of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD). The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) surprisingly announced its decision to abstain from the upcoming mayoral elections, scheduled for April 25, 2025.

This unexpected move leaves the field open primarily to a contest between the BJP and the Congress. The Congress party has confirmed its participation, fielding candidates for both the Mayor and Deputy Mayor positions.

With AAP’s withdrawal, the BJP’s path to victory appears significantly clearer. The Congress’s challenge, while present, is widely seen as less formidable given the BJP’s current strength.

This development has significant implications for Delhi’s civic governance. The outcome will shape the city’s infrastructure projects, waste management initiatives, and overall urban development for the coming years. The BJP’s potential return to power promises a shift in the city’s political landscape.
