Opinion: Mahila, Muslims, Middle class - The 3 Ms who will decide Delhi's fate

India Today  

Delhi will go to the polls on February 5 and votes will be counted on February 8. In the 2015 elections, 53 per cent of women voted for the AAP, 34 per cent backed the BJP, and 10 per cent supported Congress. In the 2020 elections, 60 per cent of women backed the AAP, 35 per cent BJP and three per cent Congress. Amongst men, 49 per cent backed the AAP in 2020, while 43 per cent voted for the BJP, with Congress reeling at five per cent. If the BJP retains the middle-class support received in Lok Sabha in Vidhan Sabha polls, then it can add around five per cent vote share to its kitty at the cost of the AAP.
