Voting for the assembly elections is to be held in Delhi on February 5. Earlier, all the parties are engaged in strategies. In this election, two associates of India block Samajwadi Party (SP) and Trinamool Congress (TMC) have given priority to Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) instead of Congress. This is proving beneficial for both sides. While SP and TMC are pressurizing the Congress, AAP is using these allies to strengthen their community -based vote share in Delhi.
For example, TMC MP Mahua Moitra held a street gathering at Karol Bagh. In this meeting, his focus was on Bengali migrants settled in Delhi. His speech had a mixture of both Bengali and Hindi languages. Its purpose was to unite Bengali voters in favor of AAP. Meanwhile, TMC MP Shatrughan Sinha is being used in Purvanchal areas.
SP is also campaigning

Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav has already appealed to “Anti-BJP” voters not to waste their vote and vote for AAP to ensure BJP’s defeat. Samajwadi Party MP Iqra Hasan is campaigning in Muslim -dominated areas of Delhi. The SP MPs which will campaign in the next two days will focus on Muslim -majority seats or the mohallas where the vote bank of the minority community is strong.

In particular, the Congress party is putting its strength in Muslim -dominated seats in the Delhi elections. Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra have held rallies in the mohallas where the vote share of the minority community is more. The aim of AAP is to reduce this possible loss through Samajwadi Party. Its effort is that a message should be given to the minority community that anti-BJP votes should not be divided, and the community should unite and vote in favor of SP like Uttar Pradesh’s Lok Sabha elections.
