Delhi Elections 2025: AAP, BJP, and Congress Face Off in Tight Race!

The Delhi election is happening on Wednesday! The national capital will see a close fight between three major parties: the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), and the Congress. Voting will take place in one go, covering all 70 areas. Polling stations will be open from 7 am to 6:30 pm.

What Are Exit Polls?
An exit poll is a survey that asks voters what they just did after they vote. These polls try to predict the election results but can be wrong. Many things can affect their accuracy, like how the survey is conducted and how honest people are. Despite this, exit polls help start conversations after the election.

When Will Exit Poll Results Be Out?
The Election Commission of India says no exit poll results can be shared until 6:30 pm on Wednesday. Reports can start coming out only after that time.

Who are the Major Pollsters?
Some big names in exit polling include:
– Axis My India
– CVoter
– IPSOS
– Jan Ki Baat
– Today’s Chanakya

Key Candidates to Watch
Some important areas are getting extra attention because of well-known candidates:
– New Delhi: Arvind Kejriwal from AAP, Parvesh Verma from BJP, and Sandeep Dixit from Congress.
– Patparganj: AAP’s Avadh Ojha, BJP’s Ravinder Singh Negi, and Congress’s Anil Chaudhary.
– Rohini: Pradeep Mittal from AAP is taking on Vijender Gupta from BJP.
– Kalkaji: AAP’s Atishi Kapoor, former BJP MP Ramesh Bidhuri, and Congress’s Alka Lamba are in the race.
– Jangpura: BJP’s Tarvinder Singh Marwah will challenge AAP’s Manish Sisodia against Congress’s Farhad Suri.

What’s at Stake?
AAP is looking to win for the third time in a row, while BJP hopes to gain strength after winning in other states. The Congress, which is part of the INDIA alliance with AAP, wants to regain its past power in Delhi. There are 699 candidates fighting across the 70 areas. The results will show if AAP stays in power or if BJP and Congress can make a comeback.

A Look Back at 2020
In the last election in 2020, AAP won 62 out of 70 seats, leaving BJP with just eight and Congress with none. Exit polls then accurately predicted AAP’s victory, forecasting they would win over 50 seats, and they did!
