Stakes are high for former Delhi Chief Minister and AAP convenor Kejriwal who is seeking re-election from the seat for the fourth time. This time, Kejriwal who has held the seat since 2013, is pitted against BJP's Parvesh Verma and Congress leader Sandeep Dikshit.

With over 15 million voters and 699 candidates, the Delhi election could determine if AAP secures a fourth term, or if BJP regains power after 27 years.

Vote counting started early Saturday in the high-stakes state legislature election in India’s federal territory, including New Delhi.
