Delhi Elections Live Results Updates News Status Report- Live Streaming Information: Delhi elections became a high profile affair as they were concerned with the national capital only, but caught the imagination of the entire nation. The elections are going to be largely an AAP (Aam Aadmi Party) BJP and congress. The Congress party, that governed Delhi for three consecutive terms from 1998 to 2013, seems a mere shadow of its past. Political experts are of the view that the BJP may be able to capitalise on the ‘Modi’ and may emerge as the single largest party with clear majority this time around. While AAP is going to give tough competition to the BJP, it might not be able to reach the clear majority mark. Saturday’s exit polls may have predicted a major defeat for Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party in elections in the national capital of Delhi.The electorate of Delhi turned up in large numbers to cast their franchise and to contribute towards bringing about the much needed change. Kota MP Om Birla, who was in-charge of the high profile Krishna Nagar constituency, says, “It is difficult to predict final results through exit polls.”
