Atishi’s Unstoppable Victory Dance On Kejriwal’s Biggest Day of Defeat is Viral

New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) candidate and outgoing Delhi Chief Minister Atishi celebrated her election win from the Kalkaji seat by dancing with party workers, on a day when Arvind Kejriwal 's suffered his biggest ever poll defeat both as an incumbent MLA and his party losing the Delhi elections to the BJP. Atishi, who was trailing on the Kalkaji seat ever since the counting of votes started till the very last round, finally won the contest but her party lost big time to the saffron camp. A video of Atishi's victory dance with party leaders and workers is now going viral on social media.

The BJP’s stellar show in Delhi marked its return to the national capital after 27 years as it defeated the AAP, which has been ruling consistently since 2015. AAP was first elected to power in Delhi in 2013 with the outside support from the Congress, however, the government fell after the Grand Old Party pulled out its support. But it got re-elected to power in 2015 Assembly elections.

In today's election, the saffron party won 48 seats while Kejriwal's AAP managed to win only 22 seats. The BJP gained nearly 8 per cent vote share whereas the AAP witnessed a sharp decrease of 10 per cent. Meanwhile, the Congress which too gained some vote share failed to win even a single seat once again.

"I thank the people of Kalkaji for showing trust in me. I congratulate my team who worked against 'baahubal'," Atishi told reporters. 
"We accept the people's mandate. I have won but it's not a time to celebrate but continue the 'war' against the BJP," the 43-year-old said.
