Who will be BJP's Delhi CM pick? Top 5 contenders
What's the story
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is set to end its 27-year-long absence from power in Delhi, Election Commission trends show.
The BJP has already won six seats and is leading in 42 of the 70 assembly seats.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) seems unlikely to win a third consecutive term while Congress is set to register another zero-seat performance.
Decision pending
BJP's central leadership to decide CM candidate
With victory almost guaranteed, the question now is who the BJP would choose as chief minister.
The decision will be taken by the party's central leadership, Delhi BJP chief Virendraa Sachdeva said.
During the campaign, AAP had attacked the BJP for not naming a CM candidate, calling it "BJP ka dulha kaun" (who is BJP's groom?).
To this, Sachdeva said, "Central leadership will decide (CM's face)."
