Key panel poll postponed amid late-night drama

The election was scheduled for 2 pm on Thursday to fill the final vacancy in the 18-member Standing Committee, the top decision-making body of the MCD. The position fell vacant after the resignation of BJP's Kamaljeet Sehrawat.

However, proceedings in the House were interrupted after councilors protested against being frisked to ensure no one was carrying cellphones. Mayor Shelly Oberoi objected to the frisking, calling it "undemocratic and insulting" to the councilors.
