NDTV poll of opinion polls
New Delhi: Arvind Kejriwal's Aam Admi Party will get 37 seats in the Delhi Assembly elections - two more than the half-way mark - according to an aggregate of three major Opinion polls. The BJP and allies will get second place with 29 seats, three down from the last election in December 2013 and the Congress will get just four seats, according to a report in NDTV.
The NDTV poll of Opinion Polls is based on those conducted by The Hindustan Times, Economic Times and ABP News. Kejriwal is running against the BJP's Kiran Bedi for the post of Chief Minister of Delhi. In the last election, the BJP fell short of a majority. AAP then formed a minority government with the support from the Congress.

But just 49 days into his term, Kejriwal quit, a decision that he has repeatedly said he deeply regrets. His resignation came after an anti-graft proposal he had championed was stalled by other parties, including the Congress, in the state legislature. Delhi was then governed for several months by the Centre via President's Rule. In February, the Assembly was dissolved, paving the way for new elections.
The BJP has been counting for the battle in Delhi on the "Modi wave" - the popularity of the Prime Minister that delivered the party to power in states like Maharashtra and Haryana. But the decision to induct former police officer Kiran Bedi and nominate her as its presumptive Chief Minister has caused a deep rift within the Delhi branch of the BJP. Delhi goes to polls on Saturday and votes will be counted on the February 10.
