Delhi Election 2025: Counting of votes is going on for all 70 assembly seats in Delhi and in the initial trends, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has crossed the majority mark. These results are indicating a big change in Delhi politics, as the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), which came to power with a huge majority in the last two elections, seems to be suffering a major setback this time.

BJP's historic lead, big setback to AAP

In the last assembly elections, the Aam Aadmi Party formed the government by winning 62 seats, while the BJP was reduced to only 8 seats. But this time the trends clearly show that the BJP is in a strong position and can return to power.

According to political analysts, there are many reasons behind the BJP's lead in Delhi. These include popular schemes of the central government, allegations of corruption against the Aam Aadmi Party government, and BJP's effective election strategy.

Who is the next Chief Minister of Delhi? These three leaders are at the forefront of the race

Amidst the possibility of BJP's victory, the biggest question is who will be the next Chief Minister of Delhi? The names of three major leaders are in discussion in this race.

1. Pravesh Verma – experienced leader and strong contender

Pravesh Verma, who is contesting against Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal from New Delhi seat, is continuously maintaining a lead. If he wins this election, BJP can consider his name.

Pravesh Verma has a big political stature. His father, Sahib Singh Verma, has been the Chief Minister of Delhi and he himself has also been an MP from Delhi. His strong ground hold and loyalty to the party puts him at the forefront in the race for the post of Chief Minister.

2. Dushyant Gautam – Big leader of Dalit society

BJP National General Secretary and Karol Bagh candidate Dushyant Kumar Gautam is also being considered a strong contender for the post of Chief Minister. The biggest argument in his favor is that he comes from the Dalit community and has been associated with the party for a long time.

Political experts believe that if BJP wants to appease the Dalit community in Delhi, then making Dushyant Gautam the Chief Minister will be a big message. His calm image and strong ties with the party leadership also make him a suitable candidate.

3. Vijender Gupta – Experienced strategist

The third name is that of Vijender Gupta, who has been the Leader of Opposition in the Delhi Assembly. He is one of the most vocal critics of Arvind Kejriwal and the Aam Aadmi Party's policies.

Vijender Gupta, a candidate from Rohini, has a record that shows that he has the ability to win even in difficult situations. In the 2020 elections, when the BJP won only eight seats, he still managed to save his seat. This shows his strong support base.

Way forward: BJP's strategy and potential cabinet

If the BJP gets a majority, the biggest challenge for the party will be to handle the governance of Delhi. Many popular schemes of the Aam Aadmi Party like free electricity-water, Mohalla clinics, and improvements in government schools have been popular among the public. The BJP will have to clarify its stand on these schemes.

Apart from this, which leaders will get a place in the potential cabinet will also be an important question. Apart from Pravesh Verma, Dushyant Gautam and Vijender Gupta, senior BJP leaders may also be given key responsibilities.

Conclusion

The latest trends of the assembly elections in Delhi clearly show that the political scenario is changing. If the BJP gets an absolute majority, it will be a big blow to the Aam Aadmi Party and will set new equations in Delhi politics. Now all eyes are on the final results, which will decide who will hold the reins of power in Delhi.
