Delhi Assembly Election Results: Who are the giant winners and biggest losers?

<p>The 2025 Delhi Assembly elections mark a historic shift as BJP secures 48 seats, ending AAP&rsquo;s dominance. Arvind Kejriwal and top AAP leaders suffer defeats, while Congress fails to win a single seat again.</p>

<p>The 2025 Delhi Assembly elections have delivered a historic verdict, bringing the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) back to power in the national capital after 27 years.</p>
<p>With the final vote count completed, the BJP secured 48 out of 70 seats, while the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) managed only 22&mdash;marking a significant decline from its 2020 tally of 62.</p>
<p>The Congress, continuing its downward spiral, failed to win a single seat for the third consecutive election.</p>
<h3><strong>A Resounding Victory for BJP</strong></h3>
<p>The BJP&rsquo;s triumph marks a major political shift in Delhi, where AAP had dominated for over a decade. The party&rsquo;s return to power is being seen as an endorsement of Prime Minister Narendra Modi&rsquo;s leadership and a rejection of AAP&rsquo;s governance.</p>

<h3><strong>Biggest Losers: AAP&rsquo;s Top Brass Faces Defeat</strong></h3>
<p><strong>Arvind Kejriwal (New Delhi)</strong></p>
<p>Former Delhi Chief Minister and AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal suffered a shocking defeat in the New Delhi constituency. <br><br>BJP&rsquo;s Parvesh Sahib Singh Verma won by a margin of 4,089 votes, securing 30,088 votes against Kejriwal&rsquo;s 25,999. Congress&rsquo; Sandeep Dikshit finished a distant third with 4,568 votes.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This loss is a significant personal setback for Kejriwal, who had held this seat since 2013.</p>
<p><strong>Manish Sisodia (Jangpura)</strong></p>
<p>Former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia lost to BJP&rsquo;s Tarvinder Singh Marwah by 675 votes in Jangpura. Sisodia&rsquo;s defeat underscores the collapse of AAP&rsquo;s stronghold in Delhi, where he had previously been a key figure in the party&rsquo;s governance.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Speaking to reporters, Sisodia conceded the defeat, saying, &ldquo;We put up a strong fight in the elections and I sincerely appreciate the support we received. However, we lost by around 600 votes.&rdquo;</p>
<p><strong>Saurabh Bharadwaj (Greater Kailash)</strong></p>
<p>BJP&rsquo;s Shikha Roy emerged victorious in Greater Kailash, defeating AAP&rsquo;s Saurabh Bharadwaj by 3,188 votes. This outcome highlights BJP&rsquo;s inroads into constituencies that were once considered AAP bastions.</p>
<p><strong>Satyendar Jain (Shakur Basti)</strong></p>
<p>BJP&rsquo;s Karnail Singh won the Shakur Basti constituency by a massive 21,000-vote margin, defeating former Delhi minister Satyendar Jain. This marks a dramatic fall from Jain&rsquo;s previous victories in 2015 and 2020, where he had won comfortably.</p>
<h3><strong>Giant Winners: BJP&rsquo;s Game-Changers</strong></h3>
<p><strong>Parvesh Sahib Singh Verma (New Delhi)</strong></p>
<p>The biggest highlight of BJP&rsquo;s victory was Parvesh Sahib Singh Verma&rsquo;s win against Kejriwal in New Delhi. His triumph is being hailed as a turning point in Delhi&rsquo;s political landscape.</p>

<p>One of the few bright spots for AAP, Delhi Chief Minister Atishi retained the Kalkaji seat, defeating BJP&rsquo;s Ramesh Bidhuri by over 3,500 votes. However, her reduced margin compared to 2020 reflects AAP&rsquo;s overall decline in popularity.</p>

<p>Former AAP minister Kailash Gahlot, who defected to BJP in 2024, secured a strong victory in Bijwasan, defeating AAP&rsquo;s Surender Bhardwaj by 9,833 votes.</p>
<p><strong>Tarvinder Singh Marwah (Jangpura)</strong></p>
<p>BJP&rsquo;s Tarvinder Singh Marwah defeated AAP&rsquo;s Manish Sisodia in Jangpura, marking one of the biggest upsets of the election. His victory reflects the voter shift away from AAP&rsquo;s leadership.</p>
<h3><strong>Congress&rsquo; Irrelevance Continues</strong></h3>
<p>Once a dominant force in Delhi politics, the Congress party suffered its third consecutive zero-seat result. Its failure to win a single seat since 2015 highlights its diminishing role in the capital&rsquo;s political landscape.</p>
<p>Prominent Congress leaders, including Alka Lamba, performed poorly, securing less than 5,000 votes in key constituencies.</p>
<h3><strong>What This Means for Delhi?</strong></h3>
<p>With the BJP set to form the next government, Delhi is poised for a new era of governance after over two decades of non-BJP rule. The party has pledged to bring infrastructural development, better civic amenities, and improved law and order under its administration.</p>

<p>With this result, Delhi has decisively turned the page, ushering in a new political chapter under BJP&rsquo;s leadership.</p>

AAP Chief Arvind Kejriwal filed his nomination for the New Delhi Assembly constituency ahead of the February 5 Delhi Assembly elections. Kejriwal emphasized development and progress, urging voters to prioritize work over divisive rhetoric.
