The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) secured 48 of 70 seats in the 2025 Delhi assembly election, drawing global media attention. Reuters called it a "landmark win," while AP described it as a "major political comeback." Spain’s El País highlighted BJP’s return after nearly 3 decades. Financial Times analyzed AAP’s decline, calling Delhi its “last stronghold.” Al Jazeera cited experts praising BJP’s electoral strategy, and BBC called it a "prestige battle" for both parties. JNU professor Nivedita Menon told Al Jazeera, “It feels like BJP will never lose again.” The Congress, contesting separately, failed to win any seats.
