It has been a long campaign, political parties and their leaders have spent tremendous energies so far to win the confidence of Indian voters and form the next government in Delhi. More than three-fourth of India has voted, and it seems we are in the midst of an election which has undoubtedly been one of the most polarised so far. The fourth Election Adda @ CPR will reflect on the 2019 election story, the emerging scenarios possible post-May 23, and what the country has gained or lost in this electoral battle.
