Election Commission refused to upload voters' data, alleges Arvind Kejriwal a day before Delhi Assembly polls vote count

Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal on Friday alleged that the Election Commission did not upload data on the number of votes polled in each assembly constituency in Delhi despite making several requests.
He made the allegation a day before the result of the recently held Delhi Assembly polls will be counted.
Kejriwal wrote on X: "EC has refused to upload form 17C and number of votes polled per booth in each assembly despite several requests. Aam Aadmi Party has made a website - http://transparentelections.in where we have uploaded all the form 17C of every assembly."

"This form has all the details of votes polled in each booth," he said.
"Through the day, we will present the data of every assembly and every booth in a tabulated format as well so that every voter can access this information. 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 former Delhi CM wrote.
The AAP is eyeing to return to power in Delhi for the third straight term.
Exit polls predict BJP returning to power after 27 years
After being reduced to single digits in the last two Delhi Assembly elections, the BJP is poised to make a comeback in the national capital after 27 years, according to most exit polls released on Wednesday.
The projection indicates a significant setback for Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP, aiming for a third consecutive term following its near-total victories in 2015 and 2020.
A party must win at least 36 seats to secure a majority in the 70-seat Delhi Assembly.
The BJP last held power in December 1998 before the Congress won the elections, leading to Sheila Dikshit's tenure as Delhi chief minister for three consecutive terms.
The Congress, which has struggled in Delhi since the Sheila Dikshit era, is expected to win no more than 1–2 seats, as per the best estimates by pollsters.
However, past elections have demonstrated that exit polls can be unreliable, and the projections should be taken with caution.
An average of four exit polls indicates that the BJP could secure 42 seats, comfortably crossing the halfway mark, while AAP may drop to just 25 seats.
PMarq has forecasted 39–49 seats for the BJP and 21–31 for AAP.
Times Now JVC predicts 39–45 seats for the BJP and 22–31 for AAP.
People's Pulse has given the BJP the highest estimate of 51–60 seats, while forecasting 10–19 for AAP.
Matrize is the only pollster predicting a close contest, estimating 35–40 seats for the BJP and 32–37 for AAP.
