Delhi poll result: BJP leads in Muslim dominated Okhla, AAP's Amanatullah Khan trails
New Delhi/IBNS: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is leading in the Muslim dominated Delhi assembly constituency Okhla as the counting of votes are underway in the national capital on Saturday.
BJP candidate Manish Chaudhary is ahead of Aam Aadmi Party [AAP]'s Amanatullah Khan by over 2,500 votes.
The Congress and AIMIM are trailing behind Khan.
In the bigger picture too, the AAP is facing a setback as Arvind Kejriwal's party is staring at a stunning defeat in the hands of the BJP, which aims for a return to power in Delhi after 27 years.
As per the trends, the BJP is leading over 40 out of 70 seats while the AAP is languishing at around 28.
The Congress, which was leading in one or two seats in the morning, is now down to zero.
After trailing for a long time, former Delhi Chief Minister and AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal has managed to take a slim margin from the New Delhi constituency.
Delhi CM Atishi is trailing in Kalkaji while former Deputy CM Manish Sisodia is now leading in Jangpura after staying behind since the morning.
