The vote counting process for the 70-member Delhi assembly is complete, it's time to reflect on the four key candidates who contested from Okhla. AAP's Amanatullah Khan contested against BJP's Manish Chaudhary, Congress' Ariba Khan, and All India Majlis-E-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) candidate Shifa Ur Rehman Khan. The dynamics were peculiar as Shifa Ur Rehman Khan fought the assembly elections from jail.
The close contest in the Okhla Assembly constituency turned into a three-cornered fight after the Asaduddin Owaisi-led party's candidate stepped in. Shifa Ur Rehman Khan campaigned for the party in the Muslim-dominated localities of the constituency.
Regional dynamics
Considering the regional dynamics, the most densely populated areas of the Okhla assembly have a high Muslim population density. The Muslim population is concentrated in areas like Batla House, Zakir Nagar, Gaffar Manzil, Noor Nagar, Abul Fazal Enclave, Haji Colony and Shaheen Bagh.
History of Okhla Assembly Constituency
After the reorganisation of Delhi in 1993, Parvez Hashmi secured the seat on a Janata Dal ticket in the first assembly election in Okhla. In the 1998 Delhi assembly election, Parvez Hashmi won again, but this time with a Congress ticket.
Parvez Hashmi's winning streak continued in the 2003 and 2008 Delhi assembly polls under Congress leadership. In 2009, Congress sent him to the Rajya Sabha, where he served until 2018.
