Opinion | Kejriwal Becomes ‘Aam Aadmi’: Key Takeaways

The Delhi election results, which bring the BJP back into a governance role in the nation’s capital after a nearly three-decade-long hiatus, will have major implications. Here are some key takeaways:

TAKEAWAY 1: Voter confidence in Modi’s ‘guarantee’ and his personal ability to deliver on promises remains astoundingly high. The fact that Kejriwal—who saw himself as a challenger to Narendra Modi at the national level—has lost puts into perspective the monumental nature of the PM’s third consecutive victory and the BJP’s dramatic recovery post-2024 Lok Sabha elections.

TAKEAWAY 2: In just seven months, India finds itself once again moving towards BJP-dominated unipolarity in electoral politics. The BJP’s ability to rout a regional, non-Congress Opposition party reaffirms that it is still a growing force. Doubts over its future trajectory, following a stumble in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, have now been firmly laid to rest.
