Delhi Election 2013

Complete Report
A record 66 per cent of around 1.2 crore voters exercised their franchise on 4th December in the Delhi assembly election.

On December 8, final results were made public.

Final Results

AAP                          :  28

BJP                            : 32

Congress                    : 8

Others                        : 2

Total                          : 70

• As clear none of the parties are in position to attain a natural majority (min of 36 seats)
• Moreover each of the party has made it very clear that they won't try to form government via coalition.
• If no party can agree to form a coalition government, Delhi would be put under president's rule until a new election is held within six months.
• Delhi Lieutenant-Governor Najeeb Jung dissolved the Legislative Assembly and forwarded the resignation of Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit to President Pranab Mukherjee. 
• With the Aam Aadmi Party  winning over 28 of the 70 seats in the Delhi Assembly elections, the Election Commission is all set to recognise it as a ‘State party.’
  To get recognition as a State party, all the candidates set up by the party together should get a minimum of eight per cent of the valid votes polled in the entire State or secure a minimum of six per cent of the total votes polled and one Assembly seat for every 25 seats in that State.
