As Aam Aadmi Party moves close to winning the majority number in Delhi, Delhi's Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia took to his official Twitter handle and thanked the people of Delhi for 'honouring five years of work done by the Aam Aadmi Party in Delhi.'
Sisodia's tweet roughly translates as, "A wholehearted thank you Delhi. For honoring five years of work done by the AAP government and for honouring education. True nationalism is to give good education to all the children of the country while being in the government."
दिल से शुक्रिया दिल्ली.. पाँच साल के काम को सम्मान देने के लिए,... शिक्षा को सम्मान देने के लिए ....

सरकार में रहकर देश के सब बच्चों को अच्छी शिक्षा देना ही सच्ची राष्ट्र्भक्ति है.
'People have accepted Kejriwal's definition of nationalism'
Earlier in the day, AAP's star campaigner Manish Sisodia spoke about how the people of Delhi had accepted Kejriwal's definition of nationalism which meant 'working for the welfare of the people.' "This is the third time that the people have re-elected Kejriwal and shown their love for him. This shows the governance model and education model that Kejriwal has set in the country," he said.
"Patriotism means working for the people, working for children's education, providing healthcare, electricity, water. This is the true governance model. And today Delhi has understood that nationalism means a government that works for the people. Till the time the BJP does not stop its politics of making religions fight with each other, they will continue losing," added Sisodia.
Counting of votes
The counting procedure for the Delhi Assembly Elections 2020 began at 8 am on Tuesday. The election held on February 8 in the national capital. On Sunday, Delhi's Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) Ranbir Singh said that 21 centers have been set up in the city for the counting of votes.
