Though the ruling coalition parties did not contest the Urban Local Bodies (ULB) polls together, nonetheless they are expected to come together after the results if no party wins a majority. As BJP has a strong presence in urban bodies, if the two parties win more than half of the seats, they are likely to consider it a win.
