Former Prime Minister H D Deve Gowda on Tuesday congratulated Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal over AAP's "splendid third victory" in the assembly polls and said this win assures the rest of India yet again that "desperate acts of communal polarisation has limited currency".
"You richly deserved this win. It is also a remarkably good sign in Indian politics that your focus on development has paid off immensely," Gowda said.
In a letter to Kejriwal, the JD(S) patriarch said "Your victory assures the rest of India yet again that desperate acts of communal polarisation has limited currency.
The talk of your government's good work in the health and education sectors has reached the corners of Karnataka and the rest of India too."
