Key ups and downs during counting
Common in early trends There was a tough fight between the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). However, by afternoon, the BJP took the lead. The loss of prominent figures like Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia proved to be a big setback for the AAP.
Reasons for BJP's victory
- Modi factor: Prime Minister Narendra Modi's popularity gave the BJP a big advantage.
- Corruption allegations: Corruption allegations against AAP leaders and the Enforcement Directorate (ED) probe damaged their image.
- Lack of opposition unity: The lack of an alliance between the Congress and the AAP led to polarisation of opposition votes.
Future strategy
Now the question is who will become the next Chief Minister of Delhi? Names like Parvesh Verma, Satish Upadhyay and Gajendra Singh Shekhawat are doing the rounds within the BJP. At the same time, after the defeat of AAP, speculations about the future of the party have intensified.
