Strangely, it does not matter who rules the capital of USA, England,
Russia or France. Can anyone remember the name of the Mayor of Bombay?
Though Delhi is smaller than most cities, the election in Delhi has
become extremely important for politicians. The media gives more
importance to Delhi than all the states combined.
The Congress controlled Delhi for 15 years. In 2013, AAP of Kejriwal defeated the Congress decisively and took away all its vote banks. In 2013, BJP won 31 MLAs out of 70. Kejriwal ( AAP) won 28 and Congress got only 8 MLAs, with the 15 years Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit losing her own seat. Congress has not recovered from this shock.
