After voting concluded in Ajmer’s municipal elections, Congress leader Dharmendra Rathod announced that the party expects to form the municipal board.
Voting for the Ajmer Municipal Corporation elections has officially finished, marking the end of the polling phase in the Rajasthan city. The electorate cast their votes across the city's wards, and the counting process is slated to begin shortly.
In the immediate aftermath, Congress representative Dharmendra Rathod addressed the media, asserting that the party is poised to secure a majority and will therefore become the governing board of the Ajmer municipal body. Rathod emphasized the party's campaign focus on local infrastructure and public services, suggesting that a Congress-led board would address these priorities.
While the official results are yet to be announced, Rathod's statement reflects the party's confidence ahead of the tally. Observers note that the claim adds a political dimension to the post‑poll atmosphere, with other parties expected to contest the outcome once the vote count is released.
