BJP claims AAP lost majority in Delhi MCD

thehindu.com

The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) saw chaos as the BJP demanded a floor test, claiming the AAP no longer holds a majority. Both parties engaged in loud protests, with BJP members tearing agenda papers and climbing tables. In the 2022 elections, AAP won 134 seats, while BJP secured 104. Recent defections and the February Assembly elections have left both parties with 115 councillors each in the 238-member House, with eight councillors from Congress. The anti-defection law does not apply in the MCD. BJP's Leader of the Opposition criticized AAP for a lack of development and accused them of disrupting House proceedings since taking power three years ago.
