Hyderabad Municipal Election earlier saw a bitter campaign between the ruling TRS, its unannounced ally MIM, and BJP. The civic body election has recorded a polling percentage of 46.55 in the 2020 election.
TRS had won 99 seats in the 2016 election. AIMIM had won 44 whereas BJP and Congress had respectively won 4 nd 2 seats in the last election.
The BJP had vigourously campaigned for the 2020 GHMC Polls. Party stalwarts, including Union Home Minister Amit Shah, campaigned in the Hyderabad civic election.
Like it is seen at other places where BJP contested the elections, in Hyderabad too the campaign was communally charged. Instead of focussing on development or local issues as should be a case in any civic election, BJP campaign was marred by communal slur, especially against Muslims who form a majority in Hyderabad.
GHMC 2020 polls are also different because the state election commission used Paper Ballots, instead of EVMs, in all wards.
Allegations of manipulation in EVMs have been raised in every election, especially in those where the BJP has won. All eyes are therefore on GHMC election 2020 result where Paper Ballots have been used the first time after two decades.
