'Delhi walo, I love you', says Arvind Kejriwal as AAP set to sweep state again

The PPP behind the AAP victory in Delhi

The hat-trick scored by Arvind Kejriwals’ Aam Aadmi Party in Delhi Assembly polls hinges on three Ps – personality, programme and party.


The results establish Kerjriwal’s credentials as a serious contender in the political arena and the win gives AAP, a relative newbie, a firm footing in Indian politics.

Despite a spirited and combative campaign, the BJP seems poised to only slightly improve its tally from the abysmal three seats it won in 2015 to seven this time round. This despite top BJP leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah and BJP chief J P Nadda, virtually carpet bombing the state with rallies, meetings and others kinds of campaigns.

The curiosity among people to know the outcome of the elections to the 70-member Delhi Assembly has heightened post-exit polls, that has forecast a big win for the ruling Aam Aadmi Party. BJP leaders have, however, maintained that the exit poll results that predicted its defeat in the Delhi polls will "fail" as the surveys did not take into account the votes polled in the evening.

Tight security arrangements have also been put in place at various centres across the national capital.

Kapil Mishra, who was a minister in Arvind Kejriwal's cabinet, joined the BJP after he fell out with him."It is worrying that AAP is raising fingers on the Election Commission and electronic voting machines. This is because they know the mood of the people of Delhi and realised that BJP is going to win and form the government in the national capital," he said.

Even as the exit polls have given a comfortable win for Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP, yesterday, BJP candidate Kapil Mishra attackedKejriwal saying he could lose election from the New Delhi constituency. "The people's mandate is with the BJP. We know the reality as we have worked on the ground. I must say, there is nothing to be surprised if Kejriwal gets defeated from the New Delhi constituency," he said.

The BJP laid it all out for what it knew was in a sense a make-or-break battle.
