Elections to Hisar, Karnal, Panipat, Rohtak and Yamunanagar municipal corporations recorded 60 to 65 per cent voting. Yamunanagar municipal corporation recorded the highest percentage of polling. As many as 136 wards, spread across five civic bodies, went to polls. In a first, the mayors of the five civic bodies will be elected directly through the general public. Earlier, elected councillors used to nominate the mayor.

A massive 89.5 per cent voter exercised their franchise in Jakhal Mandi municipal committee elections, while 82 per cent polling was recorded in Pundri. The ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) contested elections on its symbol, while the Indian National Lok Dal fielded their candidates for just mayoral post. The Congress and Aam Aadmi Party didn't contest on their symbol but supported some independents candidates for councillor post.

NOTA or 'none of the above' option will be treated as a 'fictional candidate'. If all the contesting candidates individually receive fewer votes than those cast for the fictional candidate, NOTA, none of the candidates will be declared elected. The polls will be cancelled and held afresh, said Haryana Election Commissioner Dalip Singh.
