Jammu BJP celebrates party’s victory in Delhi elections

BJP workers led by senior party leaders on Saturday thronged the party headquarters in Jammu to celebrate the saffron party’s performance in Delhi Assembly polls. Amid bursting of fire crackers and distribution of sweets, the party workers were also seen dancing on the tunes of the drums to celebrate the victory.

“The people of Delhi rejected corruption by voting for BJP. We salute the party leadership and workers for their hard work,” J&K BJP president Sat Paul Sharma said. He said the defeat of AAP national convener and former Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal from his seat is a clear message from the people that they do not want “corrupt leaders”.

“This victory is people’s win… the national capital will see massive development with a double engine government under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi,” Sharma said.

Senior BJP leader and MLA Vikram Randhawa said the voters of Delhi exercised their democratic right wisely to say goodbye to “AAP-Da”. “This is the victory of nationalism. Winning the national capital is a big thing for the party,” he said.

BJP MLA Shagun Parihar said the party’s triumph in Delhi marks an end of AAP’s “deception and dishonesty”. “BJP will fulfil all its promises and will live to the expectations of the people who have given their blessings to the party candidates,” she said.
