Hailing party’s landslide win as a “Victory of India” Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said a new kind of politics has emerged from the Delhi Assembly poll outcome, with people rewarding the party which built schools, hospitals and provided cheap electricity round-the-clock.
Kejriwal greeted supporters at party office by saying “I love you”. He chanted “Bharat mata ki jai, Inquilab zindaba and thereafter he addressed the supporters. “It is a victory of all and every family who considered me their son and gave us a huge mandate. In the country today, Delhiites have given birth to a new kind of politics, which is called “Kaam ki rajneeti” (politics of works),” he said.
“This is very auspicious message for the country as the politics of work can only take our country to the 21st century,” said Kejriwal, flanked by his wife, daughter and senior party leaders, from the stage erected at the party’s headquarters.
The AAP chief was accompanied by his family and senior party leaders Gopal Rai and Sanjay Singh.
Addressing the gathering, AAP’s Rajya Sabha member Sushil Gupta said, “People of Delhi have showed the way to the country that only development works will take it forward and not Hindu-Muslim politics. All kind of divisive politics has been rejected by the people of Delhi.”
Party leader Gopal Rai also asked volunteers to get ready, saying “what happens in Delhi can expand to the whole country”. Rai, a Minister in the Kejriwal Government, retained Babarpur constituency by defeating BJP’s Naresh Gaur.
“The whole country needs change. I urge my volunteers to prepare themselves. Get ready. What happened in Delhi can expand to the whole country,” Rai said.
