Delhi Assembly Election Result 2020 LIVE Updates: Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party has taken early lead, while the BJP too has opened its account. Among the key candidates, AAP’s Arvind Kejriwal, Raghav Chadha and Manish Sisodia, and Aatishi, and BJP’s Tejinder Singh Bagga and Kapil Mishra are leading in their respective constituencies. The ruling AAP is eyeing a third consecutive term in Delhi. The three-cornered poll contest saw the AAP battle the Bharatiya Janata Party, whose high-pitched campaign was anchored by home minister Amit Shah and not Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and the Congress.
The Delhi assembly election result will also determine the AAP’s future and whether Arvind Kejriwal will be able to renew his ambition of making it a national party. If the Delhi election result proves the exit polls right and the broom sweeps Delhi again, it would be a major filip for the goal. All Delhi exit poll results have been unanimous that Arvind Kejriwal will return as Delhi chief minister for the third time and the AAP will romp home to victory, at the very least by a two-thirds majority. The predictions differed only in terms of the margin of victory. The AAP’s tally will fall somewhere between 44 and 68 in the assembly of 70, according to the pollsters.
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 AAP, and the delay in announcement of the final voter turnout by authorities. The election, largely seen as a battle between the ruling Aam Aadmi Party and the BJP, which went aggressive during the high-octane campaign, was held on Saturday, sealing the fate of 672 candidates —593 men and 79 women.
