BJP accuses AAP govt of undermining democratic process in mayoral races

The BJP’s memorandum claims that despite lacking a valid numerical strength to appoint mayors, the AAP government resorted to administrative manipulation to install preferred candidates. The party says this blatant disregard for the electorate’s mandate breaches political fairness, constitutional decorum and legal duties of public servants.

The note specifically highlights the irregularities during the mayoral and council chair elections, urging the Governor to recognise the violations and order a swift, unbiased investigation by an autonomous body.
