Jayant Parashar (23), who said he had cast his ballot for the first time, came to the swearing in function with his friend Calvin Chiramel.
Both of them are members of the band called Woody Acouche Project and played a song 'Samaroh' composed by them outside the Ramlila ground before the swearing in. "The song narrates the situation of the youth in India," Jayant said.
The crowd entering the Ramlila Ground also lent their voice to the duo.

There were some men who even dressed like Arvind Kejriwal and other groups holding brooms rejoicing in the celebration.
