At the moment, the political atmosphere in New Delhi is buzzing with excitement as the results for the Assembly elections are being announced. According to the latest updates, the Bharatiya Janata Party is leading with 48 seats, while the Aam Aadmi Party is trailing behind with 22 seats. Interestingly, two prominent figures of the AAP, Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia, are currently trailing in their respective constituencies. Sisodia, who was contesting from the Jangpura seat, has already accepted defeat and congratulated the BJP candidate who is set to win.
The Jangpura Assembly seat has been a stronghold for Sisodia, but this time he decided to switch to this constituency from his previous one, Patparganj. However, the results have not been in his favor as the BJP’s Tarvinder Singh Marwah is leading with a margin of over 500 votes, with just one round of counting remaining. Sisodia, in a media interaction, humbly accepted his defeat and expressed hope that Marwah will address the concerns of the people in his constituency.
When asked about the reason behind his defeat, Sisodia stated that he will analyze the results and come to a conclusion. He also praised the efforts of his party workers and thanked the people for their support. On the other hand, Marwah, while speaking to the media, credited the hard work of BJP workers and the people of Jangpura for his victory. He also expressed his gratitude towards the voters for choosing the BJP and defeating Sisodia.
Sisodia, who was known for his successful efforts in improving Delhi's government schools during his first term as Deputy Chief Minister, faced several challenges during his second term. He was arrested in February 2023 on corruption charges related to Delhi’s liquor policy, which was later scrapped. After spending 18 months in jail, he was granted bail by the Supreme Court.
Meanwhile, in the New Delhi Assembly seat, there is a close contest between Arvind Kejriwal and BJP’s Parvesh Verma. After 11 rounds of voting, Verma is leading with a margin of 3000 votes, with two more rounds to go. Speaking about his party's performance, Verma attributed their success to the trust placed in them by the people of Delhi.
Kejriwal, who has been representing the New Delhi constituency since 2013, has not yet commented on the latest trends. However, if the current trend continues, the AAP will not be able to secure a third consecutive term in Delhi as they are trailing behind with 22 seats, while the BJP is leading with 48 seats out of the 70 Assembly seats.
As the day comes to an end, it seems like the AAP has missed yet another opportunity to secure a victory in Delhi. The BJP, on the other hand, is on the verge of a landslide win. It remains to be seen how the final results will impact the political landscape of Delhi.
