After Failing To Predict Mood In Lok Sabha Polls And Haryana, Exit Polls Get It Right This Time For Delhi

The exit polls accurately predicted the BJP's victory in the Delhi elections, with 47 seats, while AAP won 22 and Congress failed to secure any.

The exit polls for the Delhi assembly elections proved to be a bellwether after most of the pollsters predicted a win for the Bharatiya Janata Party in the national capital. 

The saffron party won 47 of the 70 seats while Aam Aadmi Party was limited to 22 and Congress scored a hat-trick in not being able to secure a single seat. 

Former Delhi Chief Minister and AAP chief, Arvind Kejriwal lost the polls to BJP's Parvesh Verma. Other top leaders of the party including Manish Sisodia and Saurabh Bharadwaj were also left biting dust after the results for the elections that took place on Wednesday. 

Ahead of the result for elections, pollster guage the mood of voters by conducting an exit poll. However, of late, the pollsters had drawn sharp criticism after their predictions went entierly opposite from the actual results. 

But the exit poll surveys for Delhi got it right as most of them predicted a seat share between 35 to 50 seats for the Bharatiya Janata Party.
