CHANDIGARH : The opposition in Municipal Corporation has decided to challenge the validity of City Mayor election which was held on 1st of January and in which Congress candidate, Ravinder Singh Palli was declared elected.
The "defeated" candidate Jagjit Singh Kang today announced that he and other opposition Corporators would fight the injustice and irregularity at every level and the election will be challenged in the court of law. He said that a formal complaint in this regard would be filed in the court within this week.
A complaint against the graceless intervention of Union Minister, Pawan Bansal will also be lodged with the Prime Minister. Kang alleged that he had won the election and the Presiding officer had declared him duly elected but the total scene was changed by the open manipulation by some of the Congress Corporators at the behest of Pawan Bansal during the election. Kang was accompanied by BJP's Satya Pal Jain, SAD Councillor, Harjinder Kaur and other opposition concillors.
