Jaipur, Sept. 9 -- Voting for the first phase of Rajasthan's urban local body elections will be held on Wednesday from 7 am to 6 pm, with over 5.75 million voters eligible to decide the fate of 20,623 candidates. Polling will take place at 7,683 booths across 162 urban bodies, comprising four municipal corporations, 27 municipal councils and 131 municipalities. Polling parties left for their assigned booths on Tuesday morning with election material and security personnel. Of Rajasthan's 10 municipal corporations, Pali, Bharatpur, Bhilwara and Alwar will vote in the first phase. The 27 municipal councils going to the polls are Chomu, Shahpura, Barmer, Jaisalmer, Tijara, Khairthal, Bhiwadi, Karauli, Kuchaman City, Didwana, Dungarpur, Pratapgarh, Chittorgarh, Banswara, Jhalawar, Bundi, Baran, Jalore, Jhunjhunu, Fatehpur in Sikar, Sawai Madhopur, Dholpur, Sujangarh, Churu, Kotputli, Beawar and Nagaur. In Jaipur district, voting will be held at 565 polling booths across 18 urban bodies. A total of 32 candidates have already been elected unopposed from urban bodies across Rajasthan covered by the first phase. Meanwhile, both the BJP and Congress have identified booths considered weak points and activated workers to mobilise supporters. Both parties have also compiled lists of rebels. Ahead of polling, the BJP expelled 42 workers for six years for contesting as independents against its official candidates or campaigning for rebel nominees. Among prominent leaders facing action is former Ajmer mayor Dharmendra Gehlot, whose wife, Hemlata Gehlot, is contesting as an independent. Both Dharmendra and Hemlata Gehlot have been expelled. Around 26 leaders were expelled in Jaipur. The Congress has adopted a more cautious approach towards its rebels. In Jodhpur, however, the party has suspended 15 office-bearers, including rebel candidates. The party has also released a separate manifesto for the state capital, which offers a five-year roadmap built around 25 missions to making Jaipur modern, clean, accessible and prosperous while preserving heritage. The BJP's manifesto promises include 100,000 residential plots over five years, round-the-clock domestic electricity in urban areas and the repair and expansion of about 3,000km of old sewerage lines....
