AAP's Kejriwal dares BJP to now go for Delhi elections
The national capital has been without an elected government since February 14 when Kejriwal resigned as Delhi chief minister over lack of support from the Congress and the BJP on the Jan Lokpal Bill.
A day after the BJP registered yet another victory in Maharashtra and Haryana, the Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal on Monday dared the party to go for elections in Delhi.
"Would BJP now have the courage to go for elections in Delhi?" Kejriwal tweeted on Monday.
The national capital has been without an elected government since February 14 when Kejriwal resigned as Delhi chief minister over lack of support from the Congress and the BJP on the Jan Lokpal Bill.
On Sunday, another AAP leader, Yogendra Yadav, said, "Will the verdict now give the BJP the courage to go for elections in Delhi? Sincerely hope so."
On the other hand, the BJP, which has been accused of avoiding facing the electorate in Delhi, is now hoping that the Modi wave will work wonders for them the way it did in neighbouring Haryana and Maharashtra.
The BJP continued its winning streak on what was a Super Sunday for the party as it won 47 of the 90 seats in Haryana and 123 seats in the 288-member Maharashtra Assembly.
