Delhi's delayed mayoral election set for October 6 amid party disputes over presiding officer neutrality.

The Delhi mayoral election, delayed for seven months, is set for October 6. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) opposes Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) councillor Satya Sharma as the presiding officer, arguing for a more neutral choice. BJP's Kishan Lal and Nita Bisht compete against AAP's Mahesh Khichi and Ravinder Bhardwaj for mayor and deputy mayor, respectively. The delay was due to political disputes and legal issues.
