Could this result in center against state? The BJP had a majority in the capital with 32 of the 70 seats and was on a role, what changed? The whole of the BJP cabinet and modi was campaigning for the delhi elections full throtle, and yet they plumetted to what looks like less then 5 seats. What went wrong, was modi too prominent? Is this the point where the BJP starts to loose its honey moon period?
It is not really that Modi has lost. The Sanghi goons had been running wild a lot lately. Investments take time so results of a good governance take time to show on the ground. But without losing any time RSS has been doing "Ghar Wapsi" and threatening people to not celebrate Valentine's day. Lot of young Urban Indian voters got pissed off and Delhi is more than 95% urban. Also Muslims don't see any promise in congress any more so their voteswent to AAP as well.
BJP also didn't have a leader in Delhi to match Kejriwal. It was a lost battle for BJP but they were too cocky and in the process hurt themselves more by inducting Kiran Bedi who has 0% leadership skills.
