Abstract

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) secured a significant victory in the 2025 National Capital Territory of Delhi elections, successfully capitalising on anti-incumbency sentiments, corruption allegations against the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and a focus on urban infrastructure and economic improvement. The opposition's failure to effectively counter the BJP’s electoral strategy, combined with the AAP’s diluted focus due to their national expansion, suggests the need for revised, persuasive tactics that appeal to a broader voter base — particularly in light of upcoming 2029 general elections.
