How did the key players react after the Delhi poll results were announced yesterday? Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal's first tweet, surprisingly, was not addressed to the aam aadmi of Delhi. He chose to thank his wife, Sunita Kejriwal, for her unwavering support. The tweet was accompanied by pictures of the couple celebrating AAP's victory in Delhi. Congress General Secretary Ajay Maken's first tweet simply said: "I congratulate Arvind Kejriwal and his party for massive victory in Delhi. Wish him all the best for the future!" The Bharatiya Janata Party's chief ministerial candidate, Kiran Bedi, congratulated Kejriwal and advised: "Now take Delhi to the heights it belongs to. Make it a world-class city." Interestingly, West Bengal Chief Minister and Narendra Modi's known detractor Mamata Banerjee, who had earlier declared her support for AAP via Twitter, had posted four tweets on its victory by 5:30 pm.
