NEW DELHI: An adorable picture of a child, all dressed up in a sweater, topi and muffler, sporting an Arvind Kejriwal moustache, to resemble the Delhi Chief Minister has been widely circulated through social media.
The one-year-old child identified as Avyaan Tomar has been invited by AAP to attend Kejriwal’s swearing-in ceremony on February 16.
The huge public ceremony on February 16 will take place at Ramlila Maidan.
AAP won 62 of the 70 assembly seats in Delhi elections. BJP won 8 seats.
Election strategist Prashant Kishor and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and many others congratulated Arvind Kejriwal on the win.
Before Delhi polls, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) had come up with a “28-point guarantee card” to lure voters with promises for a better Delhi. The poll promises include curriculum on patriotism; 24/7 markets and shops; pilgrimage for senior citizens; incentives for farmers and much more.
On the other hand, BJP Chief Manoj Tiwari’s optimism proved blunt after AAP scripted a decisive win against BJP in Delhi elections. “We are hopeful. Whatever the outcome, being the State Chief I am responsible,” he said.
Earlier in the day, Tiwari said that despite early counting indicating an AAP win, people should not be surprised if BJP comes to power with a comfortable majority in the national capital.
“I am not nervous. I am confident that it will be a good day for BJP. We are coming to power in Delhi today. Do not be surprised if we win 55 seats,” Tiwari had told reporters.
He said if the BJP wins the election, people should not blame on Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs).
Before the counting process, BJP Rajya Sabha MP Vijay Goel had also offered prayers at the Hanuman Temple in Connaught Place.
But AAP defeated BJP quite easily. It was a landslide victory for AAP.
