Councillors in Udaipur, Bikaner, Alwar, Pali and Ajmer will vote today to elect mayors, with a total of 370 members participating.
The mayoral polls for five municipal corporations in Rajasthan are scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. today. The corporations involved are Udaipur, Bikaner, Alwar, Pali and Ajmer. A total of 370 elected councillors will cast their votes to decide the next mayors of these urban bodies.
Election officials have set up a monitoring system to curb cross‑voting, a practice where councillors vote for candidates outside their own party or ward. The authorities will keep a close watch on the ballot boxes and voting booths to ensure the process remains transparent.
The outcome will shape the leadership of these key cities for the next term, influencing local governance, development projects and civic services. Results are expected to be announced later today after the counting of votes is completed.
