Speaking to ANI about the exit polls, Sharma said, 'The exit polls are in favor of the BJP. As political workers interacting with the public, we feel the BJP's chief minister will be elected in Delhi.' He further criticized Kejriwal, mentioning his alleged association with 'tukde tukde' gang and controversies like the liquor scam.
