The 70 -member assembly has a magical figure of 36. In 2020, AAP won 62 seats, while BJP won the remaining eight seats. The Congress’s bag was empty. In 2015, AAP won with 67 seats and 54.6 percent vote share. At the same time, BJP had to be content with only 3 seats. The Congress could not open the account even in 2015.
If we talk about the Lok Sabha elections of May 2024, BJP won 54 percent vote share in all 70 assembly constituencies. The special thing is that the Congress performed better than the AAP and had secured 24 percent votes compared to 19 percent of the AAP.
The victory of AAP will strengthen Arvind Kejriwal’s grip on Delhi’s political scenario and will increase his stature at the national level. However, if the BJP wins, it will return to power in Delhi after 27 years and will break the AAP dominance. By 2013, the Congress, which ruled the national capital for 15 consecutive years, is expecting a political return to Delhi after the back-to-back election failures.
