Along with this announcement, the race to sit on the mayor’s chair has also started among women councillors. Three names are running at the forefront of this race, including Principal Inderjit Kaur, Amrit Varsha Rampal and Nidhi Gupta. All the three are contacting the leaders of the party at their level so that the mayor’s chair can be handed over to them.
This time the leadership of the development of Ludhiana, called the Manchester of India, will be on the shoulders of women. Faces of AAP’s male councilors have become disappointed after the seat was reserved for a woman mayor. However, the positions of Senior Deputy Mayor and Deputy Mayor will definitely be for men, in which one general category and one SC category councilor can be given an opportunity.
