KKN Gurugram Desk | The Raipur Nagar Nigam Election 2025 has become a closely contested battle between the BJP’s Meenal Choubey and Congress’s Deepti Dubey. This time, the Raipur Mayor seat is reserved for a general category female candidate.
The election was conducted on February 11, 2025, but the voter turnout was lower than expected, creating concerns for both parties. With the vote counting underway, the suspense over Raipur’s next mayor will end soon.
The counting of votes for the Raipur Municipal Corporation elections started early in the morning at Sejbahar Engineering College campus under strict security and CCTV surveillance.
With BJP leading in multiple wards, it appears that Meenal Choubey could be the next Mayor of Raipur. However, official results are yet to be confirmed.
To ensure a fair and transparent counting process, the Election Commission of Chhattisgarh has implemented strict security measures:
Meenal Choubey, the BJP candidate for Raipur Mayor, is a prominent leader and has previously served as the Leader of Opposition in Raipur Nagar Nigam.
Deepti Dubey is contesting as the Congress candidate. She is the wife of former Raipur Mayor and Ex-Speaker Pramod Dubey. Deepti is known for her social work and has strong public support.
Both candidates have influential political backgrounds, making the election highly competitive.
The voter turnout in Raipur was 49.58%, lower than the 2019 elections, where 53.09% votes were cast.
Here’s a breakdown of the Raipur voting percentage in 2025:
The low voter turnout has worried both BJP and Congress leaders, as it could impact the final results.
Apart from Raipur Nagar Nigam Election 2025, results for other municipal bodies are also being announced today. The key municipal areas include:
The final results for these areas will be declared by the evening.
In the last Raipur Nagar Nigam Election (2019), Congress candidate Ejaz Dhebar won the Mayor’s seat. However, back then, the Mayor was elected through an indirect voting system.
This time, direct voting was conducted for the Mayor post, making the election even more competitive.
With BJP leading in early trends, it seems likely that Meenal Choubey will become the next Mayor of Raipur. However, the final results will confirm the winner officially.
If BJP wins, it will be a major political boost for the party in Chhattisgarh municipal elections. On the other hand, if Congress makes a comeback, it could strengthen its hold in the state’s urban governance.
The final results will be declared by the evening, and the political landscape of Raipur Nagar Nigam will become clearer.
The Raipur Nagar Nigam Election 2025 is witnessing a close fight between BJP and Congress. While early trends favor BJP, the final results are yet to be announced.
With low voter turnout and tight competition, both parties are eagerly waiting for the final numbers. Will Meenal Choubey secure victory for BJP, or will Deepti Dubey turn the tables for Congress?
Stay tuned for the latest updates on Raipur Municipal Election Results 2025!
