He stressed that this is something that the Election Commission should have done in the interest of transparency, but it is "unfortunate that they are refusing to do it."
The Aam Aadmi Party is seeking a third consecutive victory in Delhi. However, the exit polls have predicted an upper hand for the BJP, as many predicted that the BJP is crossing the majority mark in the 70-member house of the Union Territory.
On Thursday, three more exit polls predicted a sweep for the BJP in the Delhi assembly elections with vote share in the range of 48-49 per cent and 45-61 seats in the 70-member House.
