BJP’s Ramesh Bidhuri is leading by around 3200 votes in the 6th round of counting against AAP’s Atishi in the
Kalkaji constituency in the Delhi Elections 2025. As the vote counting continues, the gap between the two is widening, signaling a strong possibility of a BJP win. On the other hand, Congress candidate Alka Lamba is far behind in the race, struggling to secure enough votes to make an impact.
Ramesh Bidhuri's Strong Position
BJP’s Ramesh Bidhuri is securing a commanding lead in Kalkaji, with a margin of approximately 2,800 votes. His consistent lead in the vote count makes it clear that he has a strong base of support in the constituency. Bidhuri, a well-known figure in Delhi politics, has been able to connect with voters through his campaign, which focused on national security, governance, and development.
His message of prioritizing law and order, along with the BJP's developmental agenda for Delhi, seems to have resonated with the people of Kalkaji. Voters appear to be backing him based on the BJP's track record in providing security and infrastructure improvements in the region.
AAP's Atishi Struggles to Close the Gap
Atishi, the candidate from AAP, has been trailing behind Ramesh Bidhuri by a significant margin. Despite her recognition as an advocate for education and health reforms in Delhi, Atishi is struggling to garner enough votes to overtake her BJP rival. Her campaign, which focused on governance and public service, has not been able to compete with the strong hold that BJP has on Kalkaji.
While Atishi’s work in education and healthcare has earned her praise, it has not translated into the widespread support needed to challenge the BJP's dominance. Her efforts to win over voters have not been enough to close the vote gap, which keeps widening in favor of Ramesh Bidhuri.
Alka Lamba's Disappointing Performance
Congress’s Alka Lamba, once considered a significant contender, is nowhere near the top of the race. Lamba’s campaign has failed to generate the excitement needed to secure a strong position in Kalkaji. As the counting continues, it is clear that she is far behind both Ramesh Bidhuri and Atishi.
Several factors seem to have contributed to Lamba’s disappointing performance. Congress has been facing tough challenges in Delhi, struggling to recover from poor showings in previous elections. Lamba’s failure to inspire voters and generate momentum reflects Congress’s larger struggles in the capital.
A Clear Path for Bidhuri?
With Ramesh Bidhuri leading by 2,800 votes, it seems highly unlikely that AAP’s Atishi will be able to catch up. While the final vote count may change slightly, the current gap suggests that Bidhuri is well on his way to winning the Kalkaji seat. His popularity and the support of BJP voters in the constituency appear to have sealed his success.
Atishi still has time to try and close the gap, but unless there is a significant shift in voting patterns, it is unlikely she will catch up to the BJP candidate. Her chances of overtaking Bidhuri are slim, given the significant lead he holds at this stage.
Ramesh Bidhuri, the BJP candidate in Kalkaji, is leading with a margin of 2,800 votes over AAP’s Atishi. This strong lead indicates that he has significant backing from voters in the constituency. Atishi, despite her focus on improving education and healthcare, is struggling to close the gap. Congress’s Alka Lamba is not a contender in the race, falling far behind in vote count.
As the counting progresses, Ramesh Bidhuri looks set to win the Kalkaji seat, further solidifying BJP’s position in Delhi. For Atishi, the road ahead is looking difficult, while Lamba’s poor performance reflects Congress’s struggle in this election. It appears that Kalkaji will remain in BJP’s hands for another term.
