The low participation marked a dip compared with earlier elections, but counting proceeded smoothly under tight security across ten counting centres.
By midday, clear patterns emerged the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) reclaimed its dominance, securing seven wards, while the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and Indian National Congress each won seats.
