Despite exit polls suggesting a victory of Aam Aadmi Party, Shiromani Akali Dal, which is contesting Delhi assembly polls in alliance with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), on Monday maintained that no party may see clear majority. “The electoral battle between BJP and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) appears to be neck and neck and the exit poll results are also indicating the same. I do not see clear majority for any party, the kind of situation we have in Delhi,” said SAD’s general secretary and Anandpur Sahib MP Prem Singh Chandumajra on Monday, during his visit to PGIMER’s campus.
Delhi went for polls on February 7, and the results for the same will be declared on Tuesday. Responding to the queries that exit polls gave an edge to AAP, SAD leader said that the party was a “temporary phenomenon”. SAD has contested the Delhi Assembly elections in alliance with BJP from four seats. While Manjinder Singh Sirsa contested on SAD symbol from Rajouri Garden constituency, Harmeet Singh Kalka, Jitender Pal Singh Shanty and Avtar Singh Hit contested on BJP's symbol from Kalkaji, Shahdara, and Harinagar respectively. Asked about the performance of SAD candidates, Chandumajra said that Sirsa and Shanty would surely win. “But there is a fight on two other seats — Kalkaji and Harinagar,” he said.
