BJP wins most seats in Rajasthan urban polls but independents deny clean sweep

Rajasthan's urban local body elections concluded with the BJP emerging as the single-largest party by seat count. However, the party fell short of an expected dominant performance due to a strong showing by independent candidates. Congress also demonstrated resilience, securing wins in several towns across the state. The results pointed to a growing voter preference for local issues over party loyalty. Announcement of outcomes was delayed in some areas due to technical glitches.
