The counting of votes of the Delhi assembly election 2025 concluded Saturday evening. The Bharatiya Janata Party has ended the Aam Aadmi Party's 10-year rule in the national capital and its own 27-year drought from power.
As per final tally at 8:30 p.m. on the Election Commission website, the BJP has won 48 seats. The AAP is victorious in 22 constituencies. The Congress has drawn a blank.
In terms of vote share, the BJP and AAP are close. The saffron party has garnered 45.7% of the popular vote, while the Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP has secured 43.6%. The Congress has managed to get just over 6% of the vote.
In the 2020 assembly election, AAP won 62 of the 70 seats while the BJP won just eight.
