Exit polls have predicted a comeback for the BJP in Delhi after 27 years, projecting the party to comfortably surpass the majority mark of 36 seats, possibly securing 10-15 seats more than that, thereby ousting the incumbent Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP. The Congress is forecasted to win a maximum of 0-3 seats.

Most exit polls projected a comfortable victory for BJP, while the incumbent AAP is predicted to miss the chance of securing a third straight win. Exit polls forecast another poor performance by Congress.

However, the people of Delhi have been heartbroken witnessing Yamuna's deteriorating state, as 'AAP-da' in Delhi has disrespected this faith.

On BJP's victory in #DelhiElections2025, PM Narendra Modi said, "The leaders of 'AAP-da' entered politics promising to change it, but they turned out to be completely dishonest.

Those who once certified their own honesty were exposed as corrupt. This was a massive betrayal of Delhi. The liquor scam tarnished Delhi's image,...

People are re-electing our governments for the second and third time... In the North-East, our governments have ushered in a new era of development. There was a time when Gujarat faced a severe water crisis, making farming difficult, but today, it has become an agricultural powerhouse.
