The BJP has achieved a historic victory in the Delhi assembly elections, reclaiming the capital after 27 years of AAP leadership. Arvind Kejriwal's AAP faced a dramatic loss where their seats plummeted from 63 to 22. The decisive outcomes prompted celebrations among BJP supporters while AAP officials locked down their headquarters in defeat. Experts note that AAP, once a grassroots movement, seems to have transitioned into a conventional political entity, and Kejriwal's influence may be waning as voter affiliations shift following the election results.
"Development wins, good governance triumphs, Prime Minister Narendra Modi wrote on X. Jana Shakti is paramount! Development wins, good governance triumphs. I bow to my dear sisters and brothers of Delhi for this resounding and historic mandate to @BJP4India."
"What once started as a people's movement had now fizzled into a mere political party, said Neelanjan Sircar, a senior fellow at the Delhi-based Centre for Policy Research (CPR), referring to the AAP."
"The AAP temporarily locked down its party headquarters in Lutyens' Delhi on Saturday afternoon as celebrations broke out at the nearby BJP offices, adorned in the party colour of saffron, with party workers dancing and distributing sweets."
