New Delhi: In a significant political development, seven Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) have resigned just a week before the Delhi Assembly elections, while BJP expresses confidence in its electoral prospects.

BJP's Campaign Momentum:

BJP MP Ravi Kishan demonstrated the party's growing confidence, particularly regarding the Greater Kailash Assembly constituency. Speaking to ANI, he remarked, "Jhaadu wale ja rahe hain, Modi ji aa rahe hai" (the broom is going, Modi ji is coming). The Greater Kailash seat will witness a three-way contest between BJP's Shikha Rai, incumbent AAP minister Saurabh Bharadwaj, and Congress candidate Garvit Singhvi.
