New Delhi:

Ahead of the results in the Delhi Assembly elections, and exit polls predicting a sweeping Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) victory, BJP president JP Nadda has called a meeting of party leaders. This evening, most of the exit polls predicted a hat-trick for Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal with AAP set to register a big victory in the Assembly Elections.

To ensure BJP's victory, around 240 parliamentarians, including union ministers and several Chief Ministers campaigned in Delhi. Ministers were told by the party high command to focus on nukkad meetings which is generally a gathering of 200 to 300 people. In its bid to make a comeback in Delhi, BJP conducted almost 10,000 small meetings in the 20-day period.
