The values above each bar represent the polling percentage (Voters/Electors). And the line across the bar chart represents the linear model regression line.

The average polling percentage for NCT of Delhi falls at 59.5%, which is approximately 0.5% lower when compared to India’s average polling percentage of 60%.
The above mentioned average values are calculated without considering 1951 data since there was a major change in the elector’s data from 1951 to 1972.
The total voters in the bar chart for the year 1951 were back-calculated from reported polling percentage, since NCT of Delhi had dual member & single-member constituencies.
1972, 1977 & 1983 election details are from Delhi metropolitan council election.
Male & Female voters:
1951 male/female voting values are not available; hence we have taken data from the year 1972. The below line chart clearly shows that the male & female voting percentage is travelling parallel to each other. Always female voting percentage is slightly lesser than the male voting percentage.
