While the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) wrested power from the BJP in the unified Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) elections bringing an end to BJP’s 15-year rule in the civic body, it also suffered a setback in the form of three BJP candidates winning from the wards that fall in Delhi Dy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia’s assembly constituency Patparganj in East Delhi. Moreover, BJP also clinched power in all the wards in jailed AAP Minister Satyendar Jain’s assembly area. In a major blow to Sisodia and AAP, BJP won in three wards - Patparganj (Renu Chaudhary), Vinod Nagar (Ravinder Singh Negi), and Mandawali (Shashi Chandna), all falling under Patparganj constituency, from where Dy CM Sisodia won in the last assembly polls in Delhi.
