Tensions rise ahead of Mayor poll in Delhi as AAP, BJP clash

India Today  

The political atmosphere in Delhi is heating up ahead of Thursday’s mayoral election, with sharp exchanges between the AAP and BJP over the appointment of the presiding officer. AAP has raised concerns about the fairness of the election after BJP councillor Satya Sharma was appointed as the presiding officer for the poll. The party expressed concerns that the BJP might try to manipulate the election process, referencing their claims of vote tampering during the mayoral election in Delhi, where the BJP appointed one of their own as the presiding officer. Meanwhile, Delhi BJP spokesperson Praveen Shankar Kapoor defended the decision, claiming that AAP has a habit of questioning statutory appointments.
