New Delhi:In what seems to be a continuation of its 2015 winning streak, the Aam Aadmi Party(AAP) is all set to form a government in Delhi for a third consecutive term while reducing its closest rival Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) to single-digit seats in the 70-member assembly.
The Arvind Kejriwal-led party has won 62 seats in the Delhi Assembly elections while the BJP -- which led a high-voltage campaign on anti-CAA protests and nationalism -- settled for eight seats after initial gains and no seats for Congress.
Both AAP heavyweights Manish Sisodia and Atishi Marlena have won Patpargunj and Kalkaji constituency respectively after the initial scare.
After voting for Delhi Assembly Elections ended on February 8, the Exit polls stated that AAP will win Delhi 2020 Vidhan Sabha Election.
The highest voting of 71.6 per cent was reported from the Ballimaran Assembly constituency, while the lowest turnout was in Delhi cantonment, which reported 45.4 per cent voting.
The majority mark in the 70-member Delhi assembly was 36.
