Here’s why Delhi mayor polls were stalled again

New Delhi Corruption

The polls to elect Delhi’s mayor have been postponed for the third time. This came amid a ruckus with Aldermen, or nominated members, being allowed to vote, and the presiding officer asking two AAP MLAs to leave the House over corruption charges.

Watch.
