The upcoming Delhi Assembly elections are shaping up to be a heated three-way contest between the incumbent AAP, BJP and the Congress.
The BJP is vigorously pushing to regain power in the national capital after more than 26 years, emphasising its "Parivartan" (change) campaign and targeting the Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP over corruption charges.
Meanwhile, the Congress, which governed Delhi from 1998 to 2013, has struggled to find its footing in the political landscape over the past decade. The elections will be a crucial juncture for the AAP which rose to power riding on the wave of anti-corruption agitation led by social activist Anna Hazare.
