• The Indian National Lok Dal (INLD), which contested in 20 wards, won one seat. The candidates backed by the Congress, 20, did not contest on the party symbol.
• Rao Narbir Singh, Haryana public works department minister and MLA from Badshahpur, said, “The mayor has to be selected within the next 30 days. We are likely to hold a meeting of party workers and decide on the issue. One thing I would like to clarify is that many of those who won as independents are BJP workers who could not get party symbols.” 

• As per the Haryana Municipal Corporation Act, 1994, the divisional commissioner has to complete the process of selecting a mayor by calling a meeting of the winners within 30 days of the notification.
