In just its second election in Punjab, AAP seems to be heading for a clean sweep, relegating the well-entrenched Congress and SAD to the ranks of also-rans. How did it manage this feat?
AAP’s clean sweep in Punjab is possibly the biggest story of Election 2022. Or at least as big a story as that of a party managing to retain power in Uttar Pradesh for the first time in decades. When last checked, the BJP was leading in 254 seats in UP.
AAP – which at noon on Thursday was leading in 90 seats, leaving the ruling Congress far behind at 13 – is a remarkable tale of a new political idea because it is just the second election the party has contested in the state.
