Chandigarh mayor polls: AAP-Congress allege vote tampering, share video | Watch | Oneindia
Manoj Sonkar of the Bharatiya Janata Party emerged victorious in the Chandigarh mayoral elections on Tuesday, securing 16 votes compared to the 12 votes garnered by the Congress-AAP candidate, Kuldeep Tita.
The outcome sparked controversy as eight votes were deemed invalid, prompting Opposition leaders to accuse the process of being rigged.
Chaos ensued when Sonkar assumed the mayor's position, leading to protests against the presiding authority, Anil Masih.
Marshals were called in to restore order.
The newly elected mayor is now tasked with overseeing the elections for senior deputy mayor and deputy mayor.
These polls hold significance as they mark the inaugural electoral challenge for the Opposition's INDIA alliance against the BJP and signify the first-ever alliance between the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Congress.

Many Colorado Schools, Have Yet to Address Lead , Contaminated Drinking Water .
'Newsweek' reports that water contaminated
with lead has been detected across ten of
the largest school districts in Colorado. .
According to an analysis by the Colorado Public
Interest Research Group (CoPIRG), over 2,000
water fixtures tested positive for high levels of lead. .
After a year of first detecting
the contamination, over half
have yet to be addressed.
Kids may be out of school for the
summer, but schools have a lot
of homework to do to ensure
sources of lead-contaminated
drinking water are addressed
before kids return in the fall, Kristin Schatz, Clean air advocate at CoPIGR, via 'Newsweek'.
Exposure to lead can be particularly
harmful to kids, with a significant
impact on learning, growth and behavior.
According to the American Academy
of Pediatrics, there is no level of lead
exposure for children that is considered "safe.".
According to the American Academy

exposure for children that is considered "safe.".
'Newsweek' reports that a 2022 state law required
all elementary schools and child care centers serving
grades preschool through fifth grade to test for lead.
The results of those tests were made public in 2023,
and schools were required to remediate any water
sources with 5 parts per billion (ppb) or more of lead.
The results of those tests were made public in 2023,
and schools were required to remediate any water
sources with 5 parts per billion (ppb) or more of lead.
Of the 2,201 contaminated drinking water sources with lead levels of 5 ppb or more, only 36% of those sources have been addressed, according to CoPIGR's report.
Knowledge is power. Parents armed
with the state's lead testing results
should have an easier time getting
school administrators to 'get the
lead out' and if they are not
responsive, it should be easier
to hold them accountable, Kristin Schatz, Clean air advocate at CoPIGR, via 'Newsweek'
