War of Wards: MCD Exit Polls Predict AAP Set for ‘Double Engine’ Drive in Delhi

Arvind Kejriwal’s Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is expected to ride the broom to a famous victory in the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) elections, ending the BJP’s 15-year rule, exit polls indicated on Monday.

AAP may get 149-171 wards, according to an Aaj Tak-Axis My India survey, which gives 69-91 wards to the BJP.

The Times Now-ETG poll has predicted 146-156 wards for AAP, giving the BJP 84-94 seats.

According to News X-Jan Ki Baat exit poll, AAP will get 159-175 wards and BJP will get 70-92 wards.

All three surveys have given Congress around 10 wards or less, while others have got 5-9.

The Zee News-BARC survey predicts 134-146 wards for AAP, 82-94 for BJP and 8-14 for Congress.

Exit polls indicate that AAP’s promise to end corruption in civic bodies has resonated more with voters, despite the BJP sending a bevy of its Union ministers and chief ministers to campaign.

Arvind Kejriwal’s party, which is in power in Delhi, had told voters during the election campaign that gaining control of the civic body would enable it to better address its core issues.
