On September 22, 2026, the deputy mayor poll in Bhilwara, Rajasthan concluded with BJP candidate Radheshyam winning unopposed after the mayoral election.
The deputy mayor election for Bhilwara Municipal Corporation was held on September 22, 2026, following the recent mayoral poll in the city. The ballot saw no opposition candidates, resulting in a unanimous victory for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) nominee, Radheshyam.
Election officials confirmed that the unopposed candidature was declared after the deadline for nominations closed, with no other party filing a candidate for the post. The outcome was reported live by Amar Ujala's coverage of the Rajasthan Nikay Chunav 2026.
Radheshyam's election adds to the BJP's recent gains in the municipal body, complementing the newly elected mayor and reinforcing the party's administrative control in Bhilwara. The deputy mayor will assume office alongside the mayor and other elected officials as per the municipal schedule.
Local political observers noted that the lack of contest reflects both the BJP's strong foothold in the region and a strategic decision by opposition groups to focus resources on other upcoming elections. The deputy mayor's term is expected to align with the standard five‑year municipal cycle.
