Feb 06, 2025
New Delhi [India], February 6 : AAP leader Saurabh Bharadwaj said on Thursday that the exit polls have an age of just one day, then the real results will be announced and Arvind Kejriwal will be the Chief Minister of the AAP-led government.
"If the BJP is happy with exit polls, they should make their government based on exit polls - they should make the CM and some ministers. These exit polls have an age of just one day - then the real results will be announced Arvind Kejriwal will be the CM and AAP will form the government," Bharadwaj said.
He further claimed that the Election Commission and other constitutional institutions that once existed in the country are now clearly under the control of the government.
"These institutions now mostly function like departments of the BJP. This has weakened our democratic roots," the AAP leader said.
AAP MP Malvinder Singh Kang exuded confidence and said that the people of Delhi will choose the AAP.
"From the first day, we contested elections based on the 10 years of work of Arvind Kejriwal. BJP contested on 'gali galoch' and misused the machinery. Be it Delhi Police or Election Commission, they have been politicised. False cases were made against people of AAP...Despite all of this, people of Delhi will choose AAP. We are confident that on February 8 when results come, Arvind Kejriwal will become the CM of Delhi once again," Kang said.
