Srinagar: Junaid Azim Matoo was on Wednesday elected Mayor of Srinagar Municipal Corporation (SMC) defeating his rival Sheikh Imran.
He bagged 44 votes, while ex-deputy Mayor Sheikh Imran secured seven votes only.
During the election process, the incumbent Deputy Mayor of National Conference Parvez Qadri along with some Councillors staged protest. They cried foul and alleged that Mayor has already been selected while election is mere a drama.
