Delhi Awaits Results as Voting Concludes, Counting to Reveal Next Government

Baby Chakraborty, KalimNews, February 7, 2025, Delhi : Voting has concluded in the capital city of Delhi, and now all eyes are on the results as speculation swirls about who will form the next government. The fate of the candidates is locked in the EVMs, with the counting of votes set to begin at nightfall. Will the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) secure a second term, or will there be a shift in power this time? The question has captured the attention not only of Delhi but the entire country, with debates over the outcome intensifying.

In the political waters of Delhi, opinions are sharply divided. Some believe that Arvind Kejriwal's AAP will return to power, while others suggest that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) might lead the government. A three-cornered contest has also been speculated, adding further complexity to the race. The uncertainty surrounding the outcome has prompted extensive discussions, particularly in Himachal Pradesh, where Delhi’s vote has become a focal point of national conversation.

With 70 seats in the Delhi Assembly and a magic number of 36 to secure a majority, the competition is expected to be fierce. Exit polls from various agencies have painted a picture of a closely contested battle, with BJP reportedly ahead in some surveys. However, exit polls have often been unreliable in the past, with many elections showing results that defied predictions. The most notable example being the last Lok Sabha elections, where exit polls had inaccurately forecasted a landslide victory for the Narendra Modi-led government.

As the capital’s citizens await the results, the counting tomorrow will reveal whether Delhi will see a return of the AAP-led government or if a new political shift will take place. With just one more day left, the anticipation is palpable, and the outcome will undoubtedly shape the political landscape of the region.
