Congress has accepted defeat in Delhi, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan, saying it was disappointed with the poll outcome.

“The results in Delhi, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan are disappointing…. Congress accepts its defeat with great humility…. We concede that we have lost there,” party spokesman Randeep Singh Surjewala said when asked about the trends.

He, however, dismissed suggestions that the performance of BJP in the Assembly polls was an indication that the party could sweep the Lok Sabha election next year. He recalled that BJP had won 2003 Assembly polls but lost badly in the Lok Sabha elections.

“Any celebration ahead of the 2014 Lok Sabha polls will be premature. BJP refuses to learn from history…. There was similar sort of upbeat mood in the BJP in 2004, when the NDA had lost,” he said.

Surjewala also said that Chhattisgarh “is a ray of hope” and Mizoram “will also bring some heer.”

Expressing suprise over the results in Delhi, where the debutant Aam Aadmi Party is competing with BJP for the first place, AICC general secretary in-charge for the state Shakeel Ahmed said, “We were not expecting these results. The reasons for this will be analysed.”

Congress has been in power in Delhi for 15 years with Shiela Dikshit having the distinction of the longest-serving woman Chief Minister in independent India.

In the last Assembly polls, the Congress had won as many as 43 seats in the 70-member legislative Assembly and its fortunes have dwindled sharply this time with the party likely to get less than 10 seats.

Congress leader Abhishek Singhvi dismissed suggestions that the trends showed that there was a wave in favour of BJP Prime Ministerial candidate Narendra Modi in the country.

Congress leader and Union Minister Shashi Tharoor said his party has very capable and experienced political leaders who are surely going to analyse in detail and find what corrective measures are needed.

He said across the the country there were regional parties and areas where the BJP has no presence. “So we should not be too hasty in suddenly seeing a sort of tsunami in favour of party that has done well today,” Tharoor added.

BJP on Sunday appeared to be on the road to capturing power in Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan and was leading in Delhi according to initial trends while Congress was close only in Chhattisgarh in the assembly elections when counting of votes began.

Media sponsored  debutante Aam Admi Party was putting up a good show in the national capital pushing the ruling Congress to the third position.

Madhya Pradesh, BJP is ruling, the party was ahead in 158  seats in the 230-member assembly and Congress in 63 constituencies.

The ruling Congress was also doing badly in Rajasthan where BJP was in a commanding position in 153 assembly in the 200-member assembly and Congress ahead on at 23 seats.

The national capital appeared to be returning a hung verdict with BJP leading in 33 of the 70 seats.

The AAP has done well to lead in 28 seats while the Congress was trailing way behind leading only in 8 constituencies. Others were ahead in three constituencies.

The only solace for Congress came from Chhattisgarh where the wiping out of the party leadership in a dastardly maoist attack in Bastar earlier this year appears to have given it a good push.

The Congress was leading in  42 seats while the BJP was ahead in 48 as per initial trends.

Elaborate security in place for vote counting. The Delhi Election Commission has made elaborate security arrangements for counting of votes to take place tomorrow with 2000 Central Paramilitary Force and Delhi police personnel keeping a tight vigil at 14 counting centres across the city. A total of 810 candidates were in fray in Delhi assembly poll.

Along with CCTV cameras and live streaming of proceedings through web casting, two layers of security cover have been set at all the 14 counting centres.

“Paramilitary force forms the inner circle of security of centres while adequate numbers of Delhi Police personnel will ensure safety from outside. Counting of votes will start from 8 AM tomorrow and during the first hour postal ballots will be counted,” said Delhi Chief Electoral officer Vijay Dev.

Over 43,000 postal ballots have been received by Delhi EC, while this figure was 1,600 in last assembly election.

Polling agents from political parties will be given access to the centres, Dev added.

Delhi has registered its highest voter turnout of 65.86 per cent in the assembly polls held on December 4.

According to election officials, 11,993 EVMs were shifted to strong rooms at 14 counting centres after the assembly polls got over and 24X7 security cover was mounted with Delhi police personnel and Central Paramilitary Force guarding EVMs and the surrounding areas.

“To ensure transparency and that proper procedures are being followed during counting of votes, a “live-watch” will be kept by senior election officials from control room through web casting,” said Dev.
Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit has resigned after vote count in the assembly elections, saying “we accept our defeat and we will analyse what went wrong.”

BJP inched towards wresting power in Delhi after 15 years with Congress pushed to the third position with a single digit tally by debutant AAP which has made a dent in strongholds of the ruling party.

Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit is trailing behind Arvind Kejriwal (AAP) by over 5,000 votes in New Delhi constituency at the end of the third round of counting, according to Delhi Election Commission.

BJP’s Chief Ministerial candidate Harsh Vardhan was leading in his Krishna Nagar constituency by 3,000 votes, the Commission data showed.

All Congress Ministers including A K Walia, Kiran Walia, Harun Yusuf and Raj Kumar Chouhan were trailing in their respective seats, pushing the party’s tally to the third place.

A total of 810 candidates are in the fray. While BJP fielded candidates in 66 constituencies, Congress and AAP contested in all the 70 seats.

BSP, the third largest party in the last assembly election, fielded candidates in 69 seats, NCP in nine and Samajwadi Party in 27 seats.
