Delhi is preparing for the MCD by-elections in 12 wards on November 30, with major parties, especially BJP and AAP, launching intense campaigns.

Delhi braces for the MCD by-elections in 12 key wards on November 30, with parties ramping up campaigns. The BJP, led by Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, is striving for success through roadshows and door-to-door efforts, banking on its previous victories to sway voter opinion.

Prominent wards like Shalimar Bagh and Dwarka B are of significant interest, where the BJP aims to regain lost ground. The election is also a critical test for the AAP, which, despite previous setbacks, aims to bolster its position by targeting BJP-held wards.

Security remains tight with extensive personnel deployment, and webcasting ensures process oversight. The Election Commission enforces a complete media blackout to maintain fair poll conditions, reflecting the high stakes attached to these by-elections.
