PremiumDelhi Election Results 2025 Highlights: AAP leader Atishi resigned from the post of Delhi chief minister on Sunday. Later, Delhi LG VK Saxena ordered dissolution of the Seventh Legislative Assembly of the National Capital Territory of Delhi.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Saturday, February 8, registered a sweeping win in the Delhi Assembly Elections. The party may stake claim for government formation in the coming days.
The BJP won 48 of 70 assembly seats in Delhi — comfortably crossing the halfway mark need to form government in the union territory.
According to the Election Commission, Arvind Kejriwal's AAP lost the polls by winning 22 seats in the 70-member Delhi Assembly. Meanwhile, the Congress bit the dust again with no seat in its court.
According to media reports, BJP's top leadership may select someone from the winning MLAs as the next Delhi chief minister.
Parvesh Verma, who emerged as ‘giant-killer’ after defeating AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal is one of the top contenders in Delhi CM race, reported Times of India.
BJP leader in the outgoing Delhi Assembly, Vijender Gupta, is also considered as a favourable choice of the top BJP leaders for Delhi, as per TOI report. However, there has been no confirmation about Delhi CM contenders.
One of the key challenges ahead for the BJP would be to fulfil its promise and solve the pollution problem of Delhi. The national capital is suffering because of pollution in Yamuna river and poor air quality. It would be crucial to see how the BJP will solve this problem in Delhi.
The Delhi election saw a three-way contest among AAP, BJP, and Congress, with 699 candidates vying for seats across 70 assembly constituencies. High-profile contests included Arvind Kejriwal (AAP) against Parvesh Singh Verma (BJP) and Sandeep Dikshit (Congress) in the New Delhi constituency, and CM Atishi (AAP) against Ramesh Bidhuri (BJP) and Alka Lamba (Congress) in the Kalkaji constituency.
Here's a complete list of the Delhi Elections 2025 winners and losers.
