The 2025 Delhi Legislative Assembly elections were held in Delhi on 5 February 2025 to elect all 70 members of the Delhi Legislative Assembly. The counting of votes and declaration of result took place on 8 February 2025.^[1][2]

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won in 48 out of 70 seats, thus returning to power in the union territory of Delhi after 27 years.^[3] The incumbent Aam Aadmi Party, which was in power for the previous ten years, lost the election, with several of its prominent leaders and cabinet ministers including national convener Arvind Kejriwal, Manish Sisodia, Satyendra Kumar Jain, Somnath Bharti, Saurabh Bhardwaj, Rakhi Birla, and Durgesh Pathak losing their seats. For a third straight election, the Indian National Congress did not win any seats, and 67 out of its 70 candidates had to forfeit their election deposit, although it increased its overall vote share compared to the last election.

On 19 February, the BJP announced Rekha Gupta, MLA from Shalimar Bagh, as the new Chief Minister.
