New Delhi: AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Monday claimed that his party is poised to secure an overwhelming majority in 2025 Delhi Assembly elections, terming electoral battle a "moral struggle" against BJP.
In his dresses to party workers across Delhi, Kejriwal vowed that AAP would build on its legacy of "transformative governance." He termed coming election a "Dharm Yuddh" (cruse) and compared it with mythical battle of Kurukshetra, contrasting power and resources of BJP with AAP's "stefast commitment to truth and justice." " BJP has money, power, and ministrative control, but AAP has will of people and support of God," Kejriwal said, referring to party's victory in recent mayoral elections.

Kejriwal said his government gave Delhi residents round--clock electricity supply, free water, and "world-class" education and healthcare facilities and challenged saffron party to match its accomplishments.
former Delhi chief minister said his government offered free bus service to women, and Mohalla clinics, while BJP failed to dress "basic needs like sanitation during its tenure in Municipal Corporation of Delhi." "When AAP took over, sanitation workers started getting paid on time, a stark contrast to constant protests under BJP's rule," he said.

"This battle will be tough, but AAP will win with even more seats than before," he said.
AAP leer Manish Sisodia said BJP's financial resources and media control were not enough to break party's resolve.
