Joining the appeal, Delhi Chief Minister Atishi described the election as a "battle between good and evil," urging voters to choose progress over "hooliganism."
On the opposing front, Delhi BJP president Virendra Sachdeva called for support for the BJP’s vision of a "clean, well-governed, and prosperous" Delhi under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership. Sachdeva emphasized the importance of the "double-engine government" to accelerate Delhi’s development.
Meanwhile, Congress candidate Sandeep Dikshit, contesting against Kejriwal in the New Delhi constituency, urged voters to turn out in large numbers to protect their democratic rights.
Polling is currently underway at 13,766 stations across Delhi's 70 assembly constituencies, deciding the fate of 699 candidates. Voting will continue until 6 pm, with results scheduled for announcement on February 8.
