No place for arrogance in governance, says AAP

After an unprecedented win in the Delhi Assembly elections, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Tuesday took a jibe at opposition parties saying that arrogance and proud attitude does not work in governance.

"Our priority is to create a corruption free society. A new political light has spread in people. This is the victory of those workers who have left their jobs. Arrogance and proud attitude does not work. If we have to create a new political atmosphere then we have to look different from others," said AAP spokesperson Ashutosh.

Another party leader Ashish Khetan said the AAP's win in the Delhi Assembly elections was a victory of democracy.

"People have voted for us with a huge amount of trust and hope, we shall work for it now. This is the win of people and democracy. Everybody has to live up to the expectations of people," said Khetan.

In a major setback for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Congress, the AAP won 67 out of the 70 assembly seats today.

The BJP, which was relying heavily on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's popularity and had also brought in former IPS officer Kiran Bedi as its chief ministerial candidate to counter Kejriwal, managed to secure just three seats.

The Congress, which had ruled the national capital for 15 years up to 2013 and was trying to rebuild its lost ground in Delhi, failed to even open its account.
