Control of the assembly in New Delhi seems likely to change hands, in an election that has showcased the cutthroat nature of Indian politics.

Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party is expected to win 48 of the 70-member legislative assembly, where it was leading, according to the Election Commission of India’s website. BJP is reclaiming Delhi after almost three decades.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Saturday won a major victory in legislative elections in the territory of Delhi, which includes the Indian capital, achieving a majority that will allow it to govern this key region for the first time in 27 years.
