Biggest losers of Delhi election: Ex-CM Kejriwal, Sisodia, and other heavyweights suffer defeats

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has emerged victorious in the Delhi Assembly election, winning a significant 45 seats, according to the latest Election Commission data.&nbsp;
This win marks the BJP's return to power in Delhi after a 27-year hiatus. In contrast, the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) secured only 21 seats, falling short of its goal to remain the largest party in the Delhi assembly for a third consecutive term. Results from the remaining four seats are still awaited.
The Congress failed to register a victory in any constituency again for the third consecutive time.

Delhi Election Results 2025: Who won which seat? Check full list.

Sandeep Dixit, the son of former Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dixit, lost the New Delhi seat in the assembly elections. However, his presence in the contest played a crucial role in helping BJP's Parvesh Verma win against AAP&rsquo;s Arvind Kejriwal and taking revenge for his mother&rsquo;s earlier losses. Sandeep fighting on a Congress ticket from the New Delhi constituency managed to split Kejriwal&rsquo;s votes, ultimately helping Verma secure a big win in this highly competitive contest.
<h2>A personal fight for Sandeep Dixit</h2>
For Sandeep, this election was more than just a political contest&mdash;it was a chance to restore his family&rsquo;s legacy. After his mother, Sheila Dixit, lost to Kejriwal in 2013 and 2015, Sandeep saw this as his moment to challenge Kejriwal&rsquo;s dominance in New Delhi.

Delhi Election Result 2025: Sandeep Dixit loses seat but challenges Kejriwal's longstanding hold

Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal launched a scathing attack against the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) stating that god "punishes" the ones who commit crime against women.
Maliwal's remarks are particularly significant in light of her past allegations against AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal's aide, Bibhav Kumar, whom she accused of "assaulting" her at the then Chief Minister's residence.&nbsp;
It is pertinent to note that despite Maliwal's repeated criticism of AAP, she has not yet left the party.
"If we see the history - if something wrong happens to any woman, god has punished those who commit that," Maliwal told news agency ANI.

<h2>Kejriwal concedes defeat, accepts 'people's mandate'&nbsp;</h2>
Kejriwal conceded defeat in the Delhi Assembly elections and accepted the "people's mandate".
Kejriwal, in a video shared on his official X handle, congratulated the BJP on its victory and expressed hope that the saffron party will fulfil the promises made by them.
"We accept the mandate of the people with great humility. I congratulate the BJP for this victory and I hope they will fulfil all the promises for which people have voted for them," Kejriwal said in a video address.
He also highlighted the work done by his party in its 10-year rule, reaffirming that AAP would play a "constructive role" in opposition while serving the people.
"We have done a lot of work in the field of health, education, infrastructure in the last 10 years. We will not only play the role of a constructive opposition but will also remain among the people and continue to serve them. We did not come into politics for the sake of power, we considered politics as a medium through which the people could be served," he added.
Kejriwal lost the re-election bid from the New Delhi seat by 4,089 votes to Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) Parvesh Verma.
The AAP chief garnered 25,999 votes whereas Verma got 30,088, while Congress' Sandeep Dikshit finished a distant third with 4,600 votes.&nbsp;
Former Delhi Chief Minister Sahib Singh Verma's son, Verma is being hailed as a 'giant slayer' and is considered as the top contender for the Delhi Chief Minister post.&nbsp;

Delhi Election Results 2025: Swati Maliwal launches scathing attack against AAP; 'ego and pride doesn't last long'

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo Arvind Kejriwal conceded defeat in the Delhi Assembly election on Saturday (Feb 8) and stressed that his party would play a "constructive role" in opposition while serving the people.&nbsp;
Meanwhile, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) secured a historic victory after 27 years. Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his victory message promised that all-round development of Delhi will be a guarantee of the new BJP government.&nbsp;
BJP&rsquo;s Parvesh Sahib Singh, a probable chief minister face of the party, secured 30,088 votes from the New Delhi constituency, while, AAP convenor Arvind Kejriwal managed 25,999 votes. Congress's Sandeep Dikshit could only manage 4,568 votes.&nbsp;

However, AAP's defeat could be because of several reasons.&nbsp;
<h2>Sheesh Mahal&nbsp;</h2>
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) scored major victories in the 2015 and 2020 polls. Before the election, the BJP attacked Arvind Kejriwal with a focus on "Sheesh Mahal", a term used to refer to the renovated CM residence during Kejriwal's term.&nbsp;
A report by the Comptroller and Auditor General of India added fuel to BJP's charges. According to news reports, the CAG probe found that the estimate for the renovation was Rs 7.91 crore.&nbsp;

It went up to 8.6 crore when work was awarded in 2020. But, by the time the Public Works Department completed the job in 2022, the cost hiked to Rs 33.66 crore.&nbsp;
Kejriwal's party responded to the "Sheesh Mahal" charge with the "Rajmahal" barb, accusing PM Modi of an opulent lifestyle and daring the BJP to show the Prime Minister's residence.&nbsp;
This campaign might have influenced voters, especially because it played out against AAP's promise of clean politics and Kejriwal's claims of eradicating the VIP culture.&nbsp;

<h2>Anti-Incumbency&nbsp;</h2>
The first two terms of AAP witnessed impressive work in sectors including health and education. The power and water subsidies provided by Kejriwal's party made voters happy and the BJP, despite sweeping Lok Sabha polls, struggled to win the Delhi Assembly election that time.&nbsp;
The AAP also asserted that the BJP government at the Centre was creating obstacles in its functioning. However, after ruling for ten years, voters saw such allegations as excuses.&nbsp;

<h2>Liquor Policy&nbsp;</h2>
The Aam Aadmi Party's (AAP) current term witnessed a row over corruption allegations revolving around Delhi's now-scrapped liquor policy. The party brought "Buy 1 Get 1" offers on liquor bottles.&nbsp;

India news: BJP’s Parvesh Sahib Singh secured 30,088 votes, while, AAP’s Arvind Kejriwal got 25,999. On the other hand, Congress's Sandeep Dikshit got just 4,568 votes. 

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo Arvind Kejriwal conceded defeat in the Delhi Assembly election on Saturday (Feb 8) and stressed that his party would play a "constructive role" in opposition while serving the people. Meanwhile, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) secured a historic victory after 27 years. Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his victory message promised that all-round development of Delhi will be a guarantee of the new BJP government. BJP’s Parvesh Sahib Singh, a probable chief minister face of the party, secured 30,088 votes from the New Delhi constituency, while, AAP convenor Arvind Kejriwal managed 25,999 votes. Congress's Sandeep Dikshit could only manage 4,568 votes.

Sheesh Mahal Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) scored major victories in the 2015 and 2020 polls. Before the election, the BJP attacked Arvind Kejriwal with a focus on "Sheesh Mahal", a term used to refer to the renovated CM residence during Kejriwal's term. A report by the Comptroller and Auditor General of India added fuel to BJP's charges. According to news reports, the CAG probe found that the estimate for the renovation was Rs 7.91 crore.

But, by the time the Public Works Department completed the job in 2022, the cost hiked to Rs 33.66 crore. Kejriwal's party responded to the "Sheesh Mahal" charge with the "Rajmahal" barb, accusing PM Modi of an opulent lifestyle and daring the BJP to show the Prime Minister's residence. This campaign might have influenced voters, especially because it played out against AAP's promise of clean politics and Kejriwal's claims of eradicating the VIP culture.

The AAP also asserted that the BJP government at the Centre was creating obstacles in its functioning. However, after ruling for ten years, voters saw such allegations as excuses.
