The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) appears to be heading towards a stunning comeback to power in the national capital after 27 years as the counting of votes for the crucial Delhi Assembly Elections 2025 progresses on Saturday. The saffron party crossed the halfway mark in early trends at 11:30 am.
According to the official Election Commission of India data, the BJP is leading in 45 of the 70 seats at 11:30 am. The AAP, on the other hand, is ahead in just 25 seats. The Congress once again failed to find its lost mojo among voters, as all of its candidates were trailing.
