New Delhi [India], February 6 (HBTV): A scuffle broke out between BJP and AAP workers in the Sangam Vihar area on polling day in Delhi, with both parties claiming that some of their workers were injured during the incident.

Sitting AAP MLA for the constituency, Dinesh Mohaniya, alleged an unprovoked attack from BJP workers. On the other hand, BJP candidate Chandan Kumar Choudhary accused Mohaniya of misbehaving and threatening him.

According to Delhi Police, no complaints have been received from either side so far. The facts are currently being verified to understand the cause of the dispute. Additionally, no MLC (Medico-Legal Case) has been received yet for any worker being injured.

BJP candidate Chandan Choudhary accused AAP leader Dinesh Mohaniya of misbehaving with his wife when she was standing outside a polling station. Choudhary further claimed that Mohaniya, along with 30-40 workers, came to his office, threw stones, and attacked, resulting in injuries to seven of his workers.

On the other hand, AAP MLA Dinesh Mohaniya accused BJP workers of attacking him. He stated that when he was leaving Chandan Choudhary's office on his bike, someone from the office threw a stick, hitting one of his workers on the head. When Mohaniya protested, BJP's 30-40 workers allegedly beat him up.

Regarding the accusations, Delhi Police stated that legal action will be taken only after receiving complaints and verifying the facts.

Meanwhile, polling to elect the 70-member assembly of Delhi concluded on Wednesday evening with a voter turnout of 60.42 percent.

Most exit polls predicted that the BJP is poised to form the next government in Delhi, with the ruling AAP falling behind. Congress is expected to continue its dismal run in the assembly polls.

The exit polls varied in their prediction of the margin of BJP victory, with one poll suggesting that the party could win 51-60 out of 70 assembly seats in Delhi. Two polls also predicted an AAP victory. The exit polls were released after the conclusion of voting in Delhi assembly polls on Wednesday.
