Several Union Ministers, Delhi BJP President, MPs, and office bearers voted early in the morning and motivated both party workers and citizens to participate in the election process.
Delhi BJP chief Virendra Sachdeva stated that although the morning voter turnout appeared slow due to cold winds, it picked up momentum as the sun rose around 11 AM.
Sachdeva alleged that until the night before the election, AAP convenor Arvind Kejriwal and his party workers attempted to create tension in Delhi to suppress voter turnout. However, the alertness of the Delhi Police and Election Commission officials ensured a satisfactory voting process.
He criticised the AAP leaders for running a negative campaign throughout the election and for trying to disrupt the voting process in different areas on polling day. AAP leaders allegedly tried to incite voters in areas like Okhla, Seelampur, and Brahmpuri but were unsuccessful, BJP chief said.
Minister of State Harsh Malhotra voted at Shyam Lal College polling booth while BJP National General Secretary Arun Singh voted at Chilla Village, Mayur Vihar. General Secretary & Karol Bagh candidate Dushyant Gautam voted at Pratibha Vidyalaya, Mayur Vihar while the BJP Candidate from New Delhi, Pravesh Sahib Singh voted at Nirman Bhavan.
Kalkaji BJP Candidate Ramesh Bidhuri, who is challenging the Chief Minister Atishi, voted at Bhanger Mohalla, Tughlaqabad.
