  • The Dehradun mayoral poll has become a prestige issue for the ruling BJP and the Congress as the latter has been facing a series of losses in the 25-year electoral history of the urban local body polls.

The article from MSN discusses the upcoming municipal elections in Dehradun, Uttarakhand, where the Congress party is aiming to break its losing streak. The elections are significant as they are the first since the BJP came to power in the state in 2017. The Congress has been out of power in the Dehradun Municipal Corporation for the last two terms. The party is focusing on local issues like sanitation, water supply, and infrastructure development to regain voter trust. They are also leveraging the dissatisfaction among voters with the current administration's performance. Key candidates from Congress are campaigning vigorously, promising better governance and addressing the city's developmental needs. The elections are seen as a litmus test for both parties ahead of the 2024 general elections.
