The Hyderabad local body MLC elections are expected to be very competitive. Two major political parties — the Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul-Muslimeen (MIM) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) — have officially announced their candidates.
On Friday, MIM selected Mirza Riaz ul Hasan Effendi as their candidate. The BJP chose senior leader Dr. N. Gautam Rao to represent them in this important election.
There are a total of 112 voters who will decide the outcome of the election in Hyderabad. These voters include 81 corporators and 29 ex-officio members. This group represents a mix of local leaders and officials.
With both parties actively preparing for the election, a close and exciting contest is expected. The results could have a big impact on how local governance is shaped in Hyderabad. As election day draws near, attention will turn to how each party campaigns and works to win support from the voters.
