A Rare Seat with a Four-Way Contest
Hindustan Times Noida
|January 28, 2025
The densely populated, riot-scarred assembly constituency of Mustafabad in northeast Delhi, is set to witness one of the most unique electoral battles of the 2025 assembly elections.
NEW DELHI:
Unlike the straightforward two-way fight between the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) dominating most of the Capital, Mustafabad stands apart—a fractured battlefield hosting a veteran, a fresh-faced newcomer, a political scion, and a controversial undertrial.
The BJP is fielding Mohan Singh Bisht, the sitting MLA from adjacent Karawal Nagar, the AAP Adil Ahmad Khan, a journalist-turned-politician who has been with the party since the Anna Hazare movement, the Congress Ali Mehdi, the son of popular ex-MLA Hasan Mehdi who held the seat from 2008 to 2016, and the AIMIM Tahir Hussain, who is incarcerated for his alleged role in the 2020 riots.
The stakes here are uniquely high, not just for the four parties vying for power but for residents who continue to grapple with crumbling infrastructure, economic instability, and memories of the 2020 communal riots.
