Delhi Lok Sabha Election Results Live Updates: BJP’s Manoj Tiwari ahead of Congress’ Kanhaiya Kumar by more than 1 lakh votes

Delhi Lok Sabha Election Results Live: According to the latest updates by the Election Commission, the BJP candidates are leading in all 7 seats of Delhi. BJP’s Manoj Tiwari is leading in North East Delhi by more than 1 lakh votes. The race is closely watched as it pits Congress’ Kanhaiya Kumar against Tiwari. Meanwhile, the Congress party’s Jai Prakash Agarwal is giving a tough fight to Praveen Khandelwal from Chandni Chowk constituency. The latest counting trends show the vote share as follows: BJP at 54%, AAP at 26%, and Congress at 17 %.

In a first-of-its-kind election, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and Congress joined forces to challenge the ruling BJP, yet exit polls suggest the saffron party is poised for another victory in Delhi’s Lok Sabha elections. Exit polls anticipate a repetition of the 2019 scenario, with the BJP expected to secure around 50% to 56% of the vote share.

Key campaign focus of parties: While Arvind Kejriwal’s arrest and subsequent release on interim bail became the focal point of AAP’s campaign, the BJP maintained a strong emphasis on allegations of corruption within Kejriwal’s government, highlighting the Centre’s role in Delhi’s development. Meanwhile, Congress focused on linking its national ‘Nyay guarantees’ with local issues, while also leveraging its common voter base shared with its ally, AAP.
