Muslims likely to lean on Congress this time

The Morning Standard

January 15, 2025

WHILE a little over 12% of Delhi's population is Muslim, six of the 70 assembly segments have a Muslim population of 40% or more.

Muslims likely to lean on Congress this time

These include Ballimaran and Matia Mahal in Old Delhi, besides Okhla, Mustafabad, Seelampur and Babarpur. Five other constituencies - Rithala, Shahdara, Seemapuri, Babarpur and Mustafabad - also have a significant Muslim population. The community may apparently play a game changer in the Delhi polls next month.

This time, a majority of Muslims want Congress to play the trump card. Over the past 11 years, the AAP successfully won over the Muslims, long considered a traditional Congress vote bank. However, the community has overwhelmingly voted for the Congress in the previous edition of the Lok Sabha polls.
