No holds barred as BJP, Congress slug it out for control of Rajasthan civic bodies, Rajasthan High Court steps in
In Rajasthan's civic polls, the BJP secured 197 of 301 chairperson posts, surprising many as Congress alleged targeting of its councillors. Allegations of gunfire and abductions emerged, prompting a habeas corpus petition to the Rajasthan High Court, which postponed the election by a week. The situation remains tense as both parties vie for control.
