Dynamic duo or desperate move? Alliance of rivals Congress and AAP look to challenge BJP’s stronghold in Delhi

IndiaTimes Saturday, 25 May 2024
Delhi is voting on May 25in the sixth phase of elections to elect seven candidates to the Lok Sabha. The BJP, which secured all seven seats in both the 2014 and 2019 elections, is confident of another victory. This time, its rivals, Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal's AAP and the Congress, have formed an alliance to break the BJP's winning streak, having contested separately in previous polls. However, data indicates that even their combined efforts may fall short of defeating the BJP in most constituencies.
