2012 Delhi Municipal Corporation election
The 2012 Delhi Municipal Corporation election was held on April 15, 2012, to elect representatives to the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD), which governs the Indian capital's urban local bodies. The election marked a significant moment in the political landscape of Delhi, as it took place after the trifurcation of the MCD in 2012 into three separate corporations: North Delhi, South Delhi, and East Delhi. This election was characterized by intense competition among major political parties, notably the Indian National Congress, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). The results reflected shifting political trends in the region, with the BJP emerging as the dominant party, securing a majority of the seats contested. The election was pivotal in shaping local governance and influencing subsequent state and national elections.
