Shelly Oberoi Of AAP Is The New Mayor Of Delhi, Defeating BJP’s Rekha Gupta!
It's a big win for AAP!

The Municipal Corporation of Delhi held its fourth attempt at electing its mayor today on 22nd February. The Supreme Court barred the participation of aldermen in the voting process, following a conflict between the Aam Aadmi Party and the Bharatiya Janata Party. AAP won the December polls but could not appoint its mayor due to a dispute over the oath ceremony and LG-appointed members. The mayoral election features AAP’s Shelly Oberoi against BJP’s Rekha Gupta and AAP’s Aaley Mohammed Iqbal against BJP’s Kamal Bagri for the duty position with Shelly Oberoi finally emerging victorious.
