Did Sandeep Dikshit cost Arvind Kejriwal New Delhi seat as Parvesh Verma wins by just 4,000 votes?

Live Mint  

Delhi Election Result 2025: Arvind Kejriwal's defeat in the New Delhi constituency, losing to BJP's Parvesh Verma by 4,089 votes, raises questions about the role of Congress candidate Sandeep Dikshit in the outcome. Had AAP and Congress joined forces, Dikshit's votes could have transferred to Arvind Kejriwal, potentially reversing the outcome. Sandeep Dikshit's presence in the New Delhi constituency further complicated matters for Arvind Kejriwal. The magnitude of AAP's rout in Delhi was accentuated by the stunning defeats of its two top leaders—former CM Arvind Kejriwal and former Deputy CM Manish Sisodia.
