Delhi MCD: Whatever happened in the MCD House on Friday in Delhi is very shameful. This will be written among the darkest days in the history of MCD. The councilors were fighting with each other. They were pulling each other's hair. If the text written in the tickers and headlines on TV channels is hidden, then no one can say that this is a fight between the corporators of Delhi. Everyone will say that MCD is not a house but a battlefield.

How did the commotion start?

In fact, on Friday, voting was held before the lunch break for the election of the Standing Committee in the MCD House, in which 242 out of 250 councilors voted. Out of 9 councilors of Congress, 8 councilors were absent. One corporator had voted for Sheetal Vedpal. After lunch, the Election Commission's representatives did the counting, in which out of 6 seats BJP candidates were declared victorious and AAP candidates in 3 seats. But in the meantime, Mayor Shelly Oberoi declared 1 vote of BJP corporator invalid and ordered recounting. This is where the ruckus started.

Started with a verbal assault

Opposing the mayor's decision, the BJP said that when the technical team of the Election Commission has prepared the results, they have gone, then why counting again, and who will do the recounting? Councilors of both the parties were verbally attacking each other in the House, but no one knew when this verbal war turned into a fight.

Your councilor fell unconscious in the House

In the midst of this uproar, AAP's councilor Ashok Kumar Manu fell down in the House after getting dizzy. He was picked up by his fellow councilors and laid on a table and started giving first aid himself. After this, while talking to the media, he said that the goons of the BJP corporator are so shameless that they attacked women and even the mayor.

Your corporator touched me inappropriately - BJP corporator Meenakshi Sharma

On the other hand, Meenakshi Sharma, BJP corporator of Anarkali Ward 208, alleged that the Aam Aadmi Party corporator hit me with a sharp object. When I turned back, he touched me inappropriately. The Aam Aadmi Party has kept animals in place of corporators. The mayor is showing favoritism. The false mayor of the common man should resign. There is a party bias going on here. 3 of our members and 3 of their members have won, when the result is out then why doesn't she announce it. Late she declares for a fight.

BJP presented example of its hooliganism - AAP

On the other hand, after this ruckus, Aam Aadmi Party MLA Atishi said that today BJP presented an example of its hooliganism, its sloganeering. The standing committee election was peaceful, but as soon as the BJP realized that they were losing, they attacked our Mayor Shaili Oberoi by climbing on the stage. He had to run away to save his life.
