Wait for 'exact polls', exit polls can be wrong: Javadekar on Delhi elections

Brushing aside exit polls that project Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) as retaining power in Delhi, Union Minister Prakash Javadekar on Saturday said his party will wait for the "exact polls" and stressed that the BJP will come to power.

"There will be a huge difference in exit polls and the final results. We will wait for exact polls. Exit polls had failed in May elections (17th Lok Sabha polls) as well," Javadekar told ANI.

"We have seen ground reality and we have got a good response. We will come into power on February 11," he added.
