New Delhi: Senior AAP leader Manish Sisodia on Wednesday thanked the people of Delhi for voting his party to power in the Delhi MCD elections and said it was their mandate that helped it defeat the "world's biggest and most negative party". Sisodia thanked the people of Delhi for trusting the party.
Delhi CM and AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal addressed the party workers as AAP won the Delhi MCD elections. He said, "I congratulate the people of Delhi for this win and thank them for bringing change."
While the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has crossed the majority mark of 126, the BJP has won 99, according to the latest State Election Commission figures.
The Congress was lagging far behind, winning just seven seats. Of the 250 wards under the Municipal Corporation of Delhi, the AAP has won 131 seats and was ahead in three.
Sisodia said in a tweet: "Heartfelt gratitude to the people of Delhi for trusting Aam Aadmi Party in Delhi MCD By defeating the world's biggest and most negative party, the people of Delhi have made a hardcore honest and working @ArvindKejriwalji win."
"For us, this is not just a victory, it is a big responsibility," he said.
The high-stakes election was held on December 4, sealing the electoral fate of 1,349 candidates in voting machines. A voter turnout of 50.48 per cent was registered in the elections. The results of this election may have ramifications beyond the national capital.
