High decibel poll campaigns
It was high-octane poll battle as Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) used their full strength giving a tough fight against each other. The third player Congress conducted a low-key campaign, and their top leadership skipped the campaign. As soon the high-stakes battle in the national capital reached the penultimate phase, AAP and BJP left no stone unturned woo voters.
While AAP was hoping to wrest control of the civic body to establish complete rule over Delhi, the ruling BJP was expecting to win maximum wards to prepare a base for the next Delhi Assembly elections scheduled to be held in 2025. On the other hand, Congress is looking to regain its lost ground in the national capital city.
The polling was held from 8 am to 5:30 pm in which the voter turnout was 50%.
All Exit Polls gave an edge to AAP adding excitement to the results as BJP under Modi leadership is formidable and it has been winning last three MCD elections, now all eyes are on December 7 when the counting of votes will take place.
