"People voted against AAP's misgovernance": BJP's Bansuri Swaraj on Delhi election results

New Delhi [India], February 8 (ANI): Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Bansuri Swaraj on Saturday said that the people of Delhi voted against the Aam Aadmi Party's (AAP) 10 years of "misgovernance" and placed their trust in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership.
Speaking to ANI, Swaraj said, "Delhi has voted against AAP's misgovernance, which continued for a decade, and instead trusted PM Modi's guarantees. We want to thank the people of Delhi for this historic victory. Their faith in PM Modi's guarantee is evident, and we will ensure we live up to their expectations," Bansuri told ANI.
Meanwhile, Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri lashed out at AAP, predicting its "disintegration" over Arvind Kejriwal's monopoly on decision-making. He further accused the AAP of "fooling" people in Delhi during 10 years of their rule.
"They (AAP) tried to fool the people of Delhi for 10 years and did not even give the people what they could have given. AAP will disintegrate in its current form because the control is with Kejriwal. You ask Atishi, how much freedom to make decisions she has," Puri said while speaking to ANI.
Asserting that AAP has no future, Puri said that it lost their security deposits in other states where it contested the polls.
Earlier in the day, former Chief Minister Kejriwal accepted the mandate and congratulated the BJP on their victory, urging them to fulfill the promises made during the campaign.
According to the latest update from the Election Commission of India (ECI), BJP is ahead on 48 seats, having won 37 and leading on 11. While, AAP is ahead on 22, having won 17 and leading on five seats. Congress has failed to even open its account in the Delhi elections for the third straight time.
Polling for the 70-member Assembly was held on February 5, with a total voter turnout recorded at 60.54 per cent. (ANI)
