Give us more seats, we will give you 5 years: AAP

In the Assembly polls in December last year, while the AAP had managed to win 28 seats, they had failed to win voters’ support in rural areas. Sunday’s roadshow and public meetings in Matiala can be seen as an attempt by the party to mobilise support among rural voters in a constituency where the party lost.

“I have come to know that because of the month of ‘shraadha’, they (the BJP) are lying low. The first day of navratra is on the 25th (September), they will try once more. Modiji has to go to America on the 26th, an attempt will be made before that. Moreover, once the elections take place in Maharashtra, around October 15-20, they will again try to approach us,” Kejriwal said on Sunday, days after his party made public a ‘sting operation’ alleging that the BJP was trying to buy AAP MLAs.

While pointing to the work done by his party during the 49 days of governance, the former Delhi Chief Minister also explained the reason for the AAP government’s resignation. “While Congress promised us support, they did not let us work for a single day. They caused problems in every thing.

I thought that if I am resigning today, elections will be conducted tomorrow,” he said.
