Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) Elections 2020
The BJP conducted a high-profile campaign to win the 150 -ward Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) by deploying several top leaders, including Union Home Minister Amit Shah, party chief J P Nadda, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and others.
After high-decibel, no holds barred campaign involving a battery of BJP leaders such as Union Home Minister Amit Shah versus the ruling TRS for the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) election was followed by low voter turnout on Tuesday, the counting of votes will be taken up on December 4. About 35 percent of the 74 lakh-odd voters turned up to cast their votes.
Polling passed off peacefully, but not without any glitch, as repoll was ordered in ward number 26 owing to a symbol mix-up involving the two Left parties-- CPI and CPI (M), officials said.
The Telangana State Election Commission (SEC) ordered repolling in all 69 polling stations of Ward number 26 after it was found that the symbol of CPI(M) was printed in the ballot paper instead of CPI, an official release said.
As many as 74.44 lakh voters were supposed to exercise their franchise while 1,122 candidates were in the fray in a battle between the ruling TRS and the opposition BJP and Congress.
Ballot papers were used in total 150 wards of the corporation.
