After casting his vote, BJP candidate from Karol Bagh assembly constituency Dushyant Gautam said, "People want change. The people of Delhi have seen examples of double-engine gvot. Delhi - the heart of the country is on a ventilator under this (AAP) government...The people now believe that he (Arvind Kejriwal) lies only and does nothing; hence they want the BJP govt this time."

"This is the Delhi election; this is not just any election. This is a Dharm yuddha. This is a battle between good and evil. This is a battle between work and hooliganism. And wherever we are going, the people of Delhi are with work. And it is absolutely clear to everyone that they do not want hooliganism in Delhi," she said, highlighting the contrast between AAP's work-focused approach and the alleged actions of the opposition.
