**Maldivian President’s Party Leads in Parliamentary Election**
In the ongoing parliamentary election in the Maldives, President Mohamed Muizzu’s People’s National Congress party is currently leading with 59 seats. This election is being closely watched by both India and China, as Muizzu’s policies have implications for regional power dynamics.
As per the Elections Commission (EC), a total of 207,693 people have cast their ballots so far, resulting in a high voter turnout of 72.96%. Out of the total voters, 104,826 are men and 102,867 are women. The number of eligible voters for this election is 284,663.
The results of this election hold a significant importance for Muizzu and his party, as it will serve as a litmus test for the President’s pro-Beijing stance and his ability to effectively govern the country. The outcome of the election will have broader implications for the relationship between the Maldives and regional powers such as India and China.
It will be interesting to see how the final results unfold and what impact it will have on the political landscape of the Maldives. The election results will shape the upcoming parliamentary term and play a crucial role in shaping the country’s future direction.
