Delhi Election 2025: Can AAP clinch a hat-trick in assembly polls? 5 factors that hold the key
Live MintDelhi Election 2025: As the Delhi Election 2025 draws near, the Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party stands at a crucial juncture since its inception about thirteen years ago. ₹ 2,464 per month saved Families in Delhi saved about ₹2,464 per month due to the combined policies of the AAP government, a new book “The Delhi Model: A Bold New Road Map to Building a Developed India” by senior AAP leader Jasmine Shah revealed “A household sample survey among 70 per cent of Delhi's households receiving full electricity subsidy revealed that families saved an average ₹2,464 per month due to the combined policies of the AAP government,” reads the book published by Penguin Random House India. Also, the upcoming election is being labelled as the ‘toughest’ fight for AAP, especially after the crisis it faced in the last two years with almost the entire top leadership finding itself in the middle of investigations by central investigation agencies over corruption allegations, mostly around the alleged Delhi Liquor Policy scam. BJP state unit chief Virendra Sachdeva called the AAP dispensation in Delhi the government of ‘criminals on bail.’ Strong BJP machinery Despite maintaining a steady 30 per cent vote vote share in the national capital, the BJP has not won a single assembly election in Delhi since 1998. Led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the saffron party has launched a scathing attack on AAP, labelling its rule 'AAP-da', which translates to ‘disaster.’ Modi, in two speeches so far, highlighted the alleged ‘lavish spending’ in the construction of Arvind Kejriwal's 6 Flagstaff Road residence—'Sheesh Mahal'—when he was chief minister before stepping down in September last year.
