BJP Wins Most Rajasthan Municipal Corporations, Congress Loses Ground

In Rajasthan's urban local body elections, the BJP secured four of ten municipal corporations while Congress lost support, with the Aam Aadmi Party winning the Baran Municipal Council. The results are seen as a warning for Congress ahead of the 2028 assembly elections. Meanwhile, a rebel TMC leader claimed that 17 NCPI MPs will join the BJP before Durga Puja, and former DUTA chief Aditya Narayan Mishra joined Congress, citing a crisis in education.
