New Delhi: As votes are being counted for the Delhi Assembly elections, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and Malviya Nagar candidate Somnath Bharti on Saturday said he remained unfazed by both the election and its outcome.

Bharti claimed that exit polls are made in BJP headquarters and hence there is nothing to worry about.

He said, "... I have served the people for 11 years, hence, I am neither worried about the elections nor the results... The exit polls are made in BJP headquarters, there is nothing to worry about..."

Meanwhile, early trends show that BJP is leading on 24 seats while AAP is leading on 6 seats as of 9.30 am, according to the Election Commission of India.

Counting of votes for the Delhi assembly election started on Saturday under tight security arrangements.

All security arrangements have been put in place. Polling for the 70-member assembly was held on February 5, with a total voter turnout recorded at 60.54 per cent.

The AAP is aiming for a third consecutive term, while the BJP is making all efforts to return to power after more than two decades in the National Capital.

Most exit polls released on Wednesday gave the BJP an edge over the AAP. However, AAP leaders said that the exit polls have historically underestimated the party's performance. They expressed confidence in returning to power.
