Congress Faces Third Consecutive Defeat in Delhi Elections: Analyzing the Downfall

New Delhi: The Indian National Congress has suffered its third consecutive defeat in the Delhi Assembly elections, failing to secure any seats. Once a dominant force under Sheila Dikshit's leadership, the party's decline began in 2015 and has continued unabated. Factors contributing to this downfall include the rise of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), which has eroded Congress's traditional voter base, and internal challenges such as leadership crises and a lack of cohesive strategy. The emergence of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) as a formidable contender has further marginalized Congress in the capital's political arena.
