DMK councillors secured the posts of chairpersons of all 15 zones in the Greater Chennai Corporation (GCC) in the indirect elections held at the Council Hall on Wednesday.
Though 50% of the councillors elected to the GCC in the urban local bodies elections last month were women thanks to the reservation of seats, only one of the 15 zonal chairpersons elected on Wednesday was a woman.
R. Saritha, the councillor of ward 69, was elected unopposed as the chairperson of zone 6.
