New Delhi/IBNS: Almost 20 percent of total voters cast their votes till 11 am in the Delhi assembly elections which are taking place on Wednesday.

As per reports, 19.95% votes were polled till 11 am.

A three-cornered fight between the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), primary opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Congress are currently being held in the Delhi assembly elections 2025.

While the AAP - led by former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal - is aiming for a return to power for the third consecutive term, the BJP, which is spearheaded by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, is aiming for a comeback after 27 years.

The Congress, which was voted out of power in 2013 by Kejriwal, drew a blank in the last assembly elections and is now fighting for its survival.

More than one crore fifty-six lakh eligible voters are expected to cast their votes and decide the fates of candidates across 70 constituencies contesting in the high-voltage Delhi Assembly polls on Wednesday.

Voting began at 7 am and will continue till 6 pm in the evening.

Over 13 thousand seven hundred polling booths have been set up across the 70 assembly constituencies in the national capital, witnessing a triangular battle between the ruling Aam Aadmi Party, Bharatiya Janata Party and Congress.

According to reports, the Election Commission has deployed more than one lakh and eighty thousand polling personnel to ensure polling is conducted smoothly.

To ensure real-time crowds at booths,  a Queue Management System (QMS) app has been introduced.

At least 220 companies of paramilitary forces, 35,626 Delhi Police personnel, and 19,000 home guards have been deployed to ensure peaceful voting in the national capital which the AAP-led government has ruled for the past two terms.
