Chauhan as the CPI (M) candidate for mayor and Tikender Panwar for the
deputy mayor’s position.The party also declared two other candidates for the ward elections.
While Diksha Thakur has been named the party candidate for the Summer
Hill ward, Saksham Verma would be contesting from the Nabha ward.
Much importance is being attached to the civic polls as it comes up a
few months before the general assembly elections and is being contested
on party symbols for the first time.
Breaking from the past, the election for the mayor and deputy mayor
post is being held by way of a direct election in the municipality. The
municipality has been divided into 23 wards for which councilors would
