Exuding confidence over AAP's performance in the next Delhi Assembly elections, its chief Arvind Kejriwal said the party will again form government by winning 50 seats which is more than required for majority.
"We should win at least 36 seats needed to form the government, but we assume that we will get 50 seats (out of a total of 70 seats in Delhi Assembly)," the former Delhi Chief Minister said at a rally here.
Responding to criticism over his quitting as the Delhi Chief Minister, he said, "We tried to do everything possible with 28 MLAs."
At the same rally, Kejriwal today accepted the challenge to contest against Narendra Modi in the Lok Sabha elections from Varanasi, accusing the BJP Prime Ministerial candidate of being "corrupt" and an "agent" of industrial houses.
