AAP’s Mahesh Khichi elected Delhi Mayor in narrow victory ahead of assembly polls

Mahesh Khichi of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) secured a narrow victory to become the new mayor of Delhi, defeating BJP's Kishan Lal by just three votes. Khichi's win provides a significant boost for the AAP ahead of the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections. Congress, holding eight seats, abstained from voting in protest of the truncated mayoral term.
