Delhi election: Most exit polls on the Delhi assembly elections hit close to home as the BJP marched ahead with an insuperable lead over the ruling AAP in the national capital.

According to the Election Commission trends, by 3 pm, of the 70 Assembly seats, BJP had won 20 and was leading on another 27, while the AAP won 11, and was leading on 12. The Congress could not get any seats.

Among the key exit polls, the closest were Axis My India, which projected the BJP winning 45-55 seats, and AAP bagging 15-25, while Today’s Chanakya had predicted 45-57 seats for the BJP, and 13-25 for the AAP.
