New Delhi, February 5, 2025 The Delhi Assembly election exit polls are out, and they indicate a tight contest between the BJP and AAP. Of the 11 exit polls, 9 predict a BJP majority, while 2 suggest AAP retaining power. If these projections hold true, the BJP will return to power in Delhi after 27 years, marking its first victory in the state since 1993.

Poll of Polls Projection for 70 Assembly Seats:
BJP: 39 seats (Majority Mark: 36)
AAP: 30 seats
Congress: 1 seat
Others: 1 seat (as per JVC & Poll Diary exit polls)
With 57.70% voter turnout recorded by 5 PM, polling officially closed at 6 PM, though those already in line were allowed to cast their votes. The final election results will be announced on February 8.
Exit Poll Reactions from Political Leaders
BJP Confident of a Resounding Victory
BJP MP Manoj Tiwari: “I have seen the exit polls, but I strongly believe our actual results will be even better. The response from voters clearly shows that the BJP is coming back to power in Delhi. This is BJP’s homecoming.”
AAP Dismisses Polls, Expects Repeat of 2020 Victory
AAP Leader Sushil Gupta: “This is our fourth election, and every time, exit polls have underestimated AAP. Arvind Kejriwal has worked tirelessly for the people of Delhi. The real results on February 8 will prove the exit polls wrong, and AAP will return to power.”
Congress Sees a Hung Assembly Scenario
Congress MP Gurjit Singh Aujla: “Many dismissed Congress as irrelevant, but they will be surprised when we win more seats than expected. AAP will not return to power, and no single party will get a clear majority. It will be a close contest among all three parties.”
What Happens if BJP Wins?
BJP’s Return After 27 Years: If the BJP secures a majority, it will be its first victory in Delhi since 1993.
Impact on National Politics: A BJP win in Delhi could boost its momentum ahead of the 2025 Lok Sabha elections.
AAP’s Future in Question: If AAP loses, it will be the first time the party is ousted since forming the government in 2015.
What Happens if AAP Retains Power?
AAP’s Third Consecutive Term: If AAP defies exit polls and forms the government, it will strengthen Arvind Kejriwal’s political stature.
Validation of Kejriwal’s Governance Model: A win for AAP would reaffirm public trust in its education, healthcare, and electricity subsidy policies.
Setback for BJP: A loss in Delhi would be a major blow to BJP, given its aggressive campaign and national leadership’s involvement.
What’s Next? All Eyes on February 8
With Delhi’s fate hanging in the balance, the final election results on February 8 will confirm whether the BJP’s long wait for power ends or if AAP manages to hold onto its stronghold.
