During the last Delhi election in 2015, AAP was able to garner 67 seats against the 53-57 seats Neta App predicts for it in 2020.

AAP has been fighting the election on the argument that they have put in the work to deserve the citizens’ vote.”This is the first time that elections in Delhi have the chief minister asking citizens to cast their vote for him, only if they believe he’s done the work,” said Raghav Chaddha, AAP candidate fighting from Delhi’s Rajinder Nagar constituency.

Arvind Kejriwal, Delhi’s chief minister, is hoping to earn a second term in office. His manifesto for the election was a 10-step ‘Kejriwal ki Guarantee’ — including promises like regularising the city’s unauthorised colonies, a ‘world-class’ education system, more public transportation and making Delhi litter-free.

BJP, on the other hand, attempted to turn the Shaheed Bagh protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) into an election topic. Although, the BJP also introduced a new bill to regularise Delhi’s 1,731 unauthorised colonies — Kejriwal had included the measure in his 2005 manifesto and delivered by issuing ‘ownership certificates’ to homeowners living in slums.
