Delhi Election: 'Delhi's son Kejriwal stands undefeated,' says AAP leader Sanjay Singh
Aam Aadmi Party's Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh on Tuesday addressed a rally at the National Capital and dedicated the party's mandate to the people of Delhi.
Aam Aadmi Party leader and Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh on Tuesday addressed a victory rally at the National Capital. Sanjay Singh addressed the rally after the Election Commission trend showcased Aam Aadmi Party to be leading on 56 seats in Delhi.
While addressing the audience at the rally, Sanjay Singh dedicated AAP's mandate to the people of Delhi and expressed confidence that the numbers will still increase.
"People of Delhi have voted in favor of the Aam Aadmi Party. 2 crore people of Delhi have shown that they trust Arvind Kejriwal and he cannot be defeated. By giving a clear mandate to Arvind Kejriwal, Delhiites have shown that Delhi only believes in the 'politics of work.' This mandate is a result of how the 'son of Delhi' has served its people wholeheartedly in the last 5 years," Sanjay Singh stated.
During his address, Sanjay Singh also slammed the BJP for investing all its power, leaders, money and strength into Delhi Elections and still drawing poor results.
