India News Get – Delhi National Election 2025 Live Update; Arvind Kejriwal Atishi Marlena | AAP-BJP candidates
Voting will take place in Delhi on February 5, while counting will take place on February 8.
Former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal announced on Saturday morning that after winning the elections, we will also provide free electricity and water to tenants. Schemes to provide free electricity and water to Delhiites are already being implemented in Delhi. From now on, AAP will also include tenants in this program.
On the other hand, AAP was going to air a documentary on AAP leaders on Saturday at 11:30 am, but the Delhi Police banned the screening of this documentary. This documentary was titled Unbreakable. It tells the story of AAP leaders sent to jail.
Regarding stopping the screening, Kejriwal said on X-BJP that he was very afraid of this film. Why after all? Why does the BJP want to stop this? The film reveals the behind-the-scenes secrets behind which a conspiracy was hatched to wrongly arrest the AAP leaders. This exposes the illegal and unconstitutional actions of the BJP government.
The Congress, in power in Delhi for 15 consecutive years, suffered a setback in the last two assembly elections and failed to win a single seat. In contrast, the AAP dominated the 2020 assembly elections by winning 62 seats out of 70, while the BJP secured only eight seats.
