Reactions On Trends
In a back-and-forth of statements and counter-statements by Bharatiya Janata Party and Aam Aadmi Party, as the counting is underway for MCD Elections 2022, Delhi BJP chief Adesh Gupta said that people of Delhi will take revenge from Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for his corruption and betrayal.
"People of Delhi will take revenge for the manner in which Delhi CM indulged in corruption and betrayed them. I trust the people of Delhi. We raised issues, exposed AAP's corruption, and revealed their failures. We're going to come to power in MCD, for the 4th time," he said.
Polls Of Exit Polls
The Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is likely to sweep the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) election, according to poll of exit polls. Most exit polls have predicted that the ruling party in Delhi would bag over 145 of the 250 wards in the MCD polls. This was the first civic election in Delhi after the fresh delimitation exercise.
According to an exit poll by Aaj Tak, AAP may get 149-171 wards. Another exit poll by Times Now shows Arvind Kejriwal's party getting anywhere between 146 and 156 wards.
Aaj Tak shows BJP getting 69-91 wards while the Times Now exit poll has given BJP anywhere between 84-94 wards. Both exit polls have shown Congress getting 10 or less wards.
More than 50 per cent voting was recorded on Sunday in the election to the 250 municipal wards in Delhi. The results will be announced on December 7.
If the exit poll results match the numbers on counting day, it would be a big setback for the BJP -- which has been controlling municipal bodies for 15 years.
A victory in the MCD polls will not only cement AAP's position in Delhi but will also give the party confidence to take forward its national ambitions and emerge as a serious contender to the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
