In the recent 2025 Delhi Assembly Elections, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) made a significant comeback, set to form a government in Delhi after more than 26 years.

BJP secured 48 out of 70 seats in the assembly, marking the conclusion of the Aam Aadmi Party’s (AAP) decade-long leadership in the capital.

AAP had been confined to just 22 seats, with its prominent leaders, including Arvind Kejriwal, Manish Sisodia, Saurabh Bhardwaj, and Satyendra Jain, being defeated in their respective constituencies.
