BJP won 48 seats out of 70 seats, while Aam Aadmi Party could win only 22 seats in the assembly polls held earlier this month. Congress could not open its account in the third successive election.
With assembly election results declared on February 8, opposition parties have slammed the BJP over the "delay" in the formation of the new government. (ANI)
