The national capital recorded a voter turnout of 62.59%, and Ballimaran assembly constituency--under Chandni Chowk-- recorded the highest percentage of 71.6 per cent while the lowest turnout was recorded at Delhi Cantonment at 45.4 per cent.


AAP is hoping for a second consecutive term, while the BJP is eyeing to gain a majority. The Congress, which was in power for 15 years in Delhi under the leadership of late Sheila Dixit till it lost to AAP in 2015 polls, is hoping for a revival. 


In the 2015 assembly polls, the AAP had won 67 seats, the BJP 3, while Congress failed to open its account.
