The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is projected to sweep Delhi, with most exit polls predicting that the saffron party would bag at least six of the seven parliamentary seats in the national capital. The surveys project zero to one seat for the Congress. Meanwhile, the Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is expected to again draw a blank.
