Overview
- Deadline for filing closed May 27 as AAP, BJP and the new IVP entered the race across all 12 zonal ward committees for the June 2 polls.
- BJP’s absence in Karol Bagh and Civil Lines left AAP nominees uncontested, while AAP skipped Keshav Puram and ceded that zone to the BJP.
- Direct contests are set in Rohini, Narela and Shahdara, with both AAP and BJP fielding candidates for chairperson and deputy chair roles.
- The IVP, formed by rebel AAP councillors, has filed chairperson nominations in Civil Lines and Rohini, signaling a tacit alignment with the BJP.
- Elections will also fill two long-vacant Standing Committee seats whose approval authority is needed for proposals exceeding ₹5 crore.
