AAP single largest party in Chandigarh civic polls on debut

Just before the Punjab elections, Arvind Kejriwal’s Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) made its debut in Chandigarh today, winning the most seats in the municipal elections and pushing BJP to second place. Arvind Kejriwal stated that the Chandigarh election results marked a change in Punjab, and Punjab will vote for a new government early next year.
AAP won 14 of the 35 municipal seats, followed by the People’s Party with 12 seats. Congress won eight seats, while Akalidar maintained one of the previous seats. Elections were held in Chandigarh, the capital of Punjab and Haryana on Friday.

“AAP’s victory in the Chandigarh Municipal Corporation shows that Punjab is about to change. People reject corrupt politics and choose AAP…Punjab is ready to change,” Mr. Kejriwal said on Twitter. The Chief Minister of Delhi has been actively fighting for Punjab elections.

“The Chandigarh election is a trailer and Punjab will be the whole movie. The mood in Chandigarh is the mood in Punjab,” AAP’s Raghav Chadha added.

In the huge setback of BJP, its mayor Ravi Kant Sharma and former mayor Davesh Moudgil were both defeated by AAP candidates. Chander Mukhi Sharma, the chairman of the AAP Campaign Committee, lost the election.

Naresh Arora, spokesperson for the BJP Chandigarh, said: “Only the final result will show which party’s vote base has switched to AAP, because BJP voters have never changed their loyalty.”

Chandigarh had 26 seats in previous citizen elections. This time, some villages were moved from Gram Panchayat to the city’s citizenship agency.

In the most recent opinion poll, the BJP won 20 seats (77% of the seats), and its then ally Akali Dahl had only one seat. BJP-Akali Dal’s rival Congress won four seats (15%). Earlier this year, BJP and Akali Dal fell out due to farmers’ protests.

Traditionally, the Chandigarh referendum held every five years is a direct competition between the BJP and the National Assembly. The AAP entry changes this. In just a few weeks, the high-risk elections in Punjab are approaching. It has become a four-party contest between the AAP, BJP, Congress and the Akali Dal-BSP alliance.

While a Punjabi vocalist croons, PM Modi replicates Diljit Dosanjh’s beats and beats the table like a dholak. Observe

Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently met acclaimed singer- actor Diljit Dosanjh, describing their interaction as “very memorable.” 
Prime Minister Narendra Modi met singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh and lauded him as “a combination of talent and tradition.” During the “memorable’ meeting”, the two discussed music, culture, and India’s vibrancy, including yoga.

Diljit, PM Modi match beats

During the meeting, PM Modi praised Diljit for his achievements, saying, “When a boy from a small village in Hindustan shines on the global stage, it feels amazing. Your family named you Diljit, and you keep on winning people’s hearts, just as your name suggests.” Diljit responded, “We used to read that ‘Mera Bharat Mahan’ (My India is great), but when I travelled across India, I realised why people say this.” PM Modi highlighted India’s diversity, saying, “India’s vastness is its strength. We are a vibrant society.”

Diljit added, “The greatest magic in India is yoga.” PM Modi agreed, saying, “Those who have experienced yoga know its power.”

The singer-actor also admired PM Modi’s personal journey, saying, “I had watched your interview, sir. The position of Prime Minister is great, but behind it, there is a mother, a son, and a human being. Many times, this half-truth is much larger when you carry your mother and the sacred Ganga with you. That touches the heart.”

Diljit then sang a song on Guru Nanak, as PM Modi listened intently, beating the adjacent table like a dholak, matching his beats with Diljit’s.

Diljit, PM Modi express grattitude

After the meeting, Diljit Dosanjh expressed his gratitude, calling it a “fantastic” way to start the year. He posted on X, “A fantastic start to 2025. A very memorable meeting with PM @narendramodi Ji. We talked about many things, including music, of course!”

PM Modi responded to Dosanjh’s post, describing their meeting as “a great interaction.” He said, “A great interaction with Diljit Dosanjh! He’s truly multifaceted, blending talent and tradition. We connected over music, culture, and more.”
