BJP Set For Delhi ‘Wapsi’, 3 More Exit Polls Predict Big Election Win

Published by Webster

New Delhi: The BJP has been tipped to win – by a margin of six – the 2025 Delhi Assembly election, according to NDTV’s updated poll of exit polls. Fresh data, from Today’s Chanakya, Axis My India, CNX, released Thursday evening predicts a return to power in the national capital, for the first time since 1998. The Axis My India poll expects Prime Minister Narendra Modi‘s party to win between 45 and 55 of Delhi’s 70 seats, while CNX is even more gung-ho, giving the BJP between 49 and 61 seats. The former gives the ruling AAP 15 to 25 seats, the latter 10-19. And Today’s Chanakya gives the BJP 51 seats to the AAP’s 19. Health warning: Exit polls are often wrong.
