Delhi Election Counting Day: Will BJP gain after 27 years tomorrow ?
Or AAP will succeed in gaining majority seats 3rd time
Delhi Assembly Elections 2025 has become a matter of prestige for the BJP sitting in the Central Government this time. BJP, which is troubled by the Aam Aadmi Government for two consecutive terms, has found it necessary to win this election at any cost.
Delhi assembly polls counting will take place on Saturday to decide whether the AAP comes to power for a fourth term or the BJP forms a government in the national capital after 27 years, even as the Congress hopes to win back its relevance.
The high-stakes polls featured an intense campaign, with the AAP, BJP, and Congress each offering a range of election promises—particularly targeting women and youth—in an effort to outdo one another.
The Delhi assembly election polling took place in a single phase on February 5, with over 15 million eligible voters casting their ballots to decide the fate of various candidates. The Election Commission reported a elctorate tunr out of 60.54% on Wednesday.
A total of 699 candidates contested across 70 assembly constituencies, including 603 male and 96 female contenders.
Delhi’s Chief Electoral Officer Alice Vaz said that around 5,000 trained personnel will oversee the counting process that will begin on Saturday morning on 8th feb 2025 .
In each assembly constituency, five randomly selected Voter Verifiable Paper Audit Trails (VVPATs) will be checked to ensure transparency.
Despite all this, BJP is accused of distributing money at many booths on the night of 4th February and also marking voters with ink. People also caught voting machines, which were made viral.
Tonight is very crucial for BJP, Aam Aadmi Party and Congress, because tomorrow i.e. on 8th February, the fate of all three will be decided.
