New Delhi : In his first public comments after his AAP won a landslide in Delhi’s assembly election, party leader Arvind Kejriwal Tuesday described it as “a victory for truth and honesty”.
Addressing thousands of cheering supporters at the AAP office in central Delhi, Kejriwal said an Aam Aadmi Party government would work in a manner that both the poor and the rich would be proud of Delhi.
The 46-year-old then introduced his wife Sunita to the frenzied crowds chanting “Paanch Saal Kejriwal!” slogans and waving hundreds of party flags and brooms — the AAP election symbol.
“This is my wife,” he said, putting his arm around her shoulders. And as she folded her hands in greeting triggering a roar, he added: “I would have never been able to work if she had not supported me.”
As Kejriwal made his brief comments, giving due credit to the AAP’s victory to the voters and his activists, he said: “This is not a victory of the AAP. This is a victory for truth and honesty.”
