Delhi election LIVE: 42.20% voter turnout till now, sharp drop since 2015

Business Standard  

Delhi election LIVE updates: TV exits polls predicted the Aam Aadmi Party will return to power in Delhi after elections ended on Saturday with more than 55 per cent turnout. If AAP retains power, it will be the third straight electoral setback for the Bharatiya Janata Party, which lost power in Jharkhand and Maharashtra last year. Junior finance minister Anurag Thakur was barred from campaigning by the Election Commission after he exhorted crowds to shoot so-called traitors to the nation, alluding to those protesting the Citizenship Amendment Act. The Congress, India’s main Opposition party, relied on the influence of a set of high-profile candidates and the legacy of its leader Sheila Dikshit, who governed the city for 15 years before being voted out in 2013.
