MCD Elections: Counting of votes underway for 250 wards

The counting of the votes started from 8 am onwards for the Municipal Corporation of Delhi election.

Delhi State Election Commission has geared up for the counting of votes for the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) election on Wednesday.

The counting of the votes will take place from 8 am onwards and the winner of the high-stakes civic polls where the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) face each other.

Earlier on 4 December, the MCD elections were held in the national capital where 50 percent voter turnout and a total of 1,349 candidates were in the fray for 250 wards.

Meanwhile, the civic polls are largely seen as a three-way contest between the BJP, the AAP, and Congress.

According to the exit polls, Aam Aadmi Party will win the elections of the municipal polls.

Moreover, if AAP wins in the MCD elections then the first Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP will rule the municipal corporation of the national capital.

However, exit polls predicted a poor performance by Congress and once again the party has failed to revive itself in Delhi.
