The party failed to open its account in municipal corporation polls despite the fact that voting was held through ballot papers.
The BJP's win in municipal elections holds significant importance. Ruling party won 10 municipal corporations in the 11 mayoral polls held on 23 January. It's a record-breaking municipal polls victory for the BJP as it never won urban local bodies elections with more than 90% strike rate.
