Congress not defeated, BJP’s loss: Congress leader

Congress leader Sadhu Singh Dharamsot said his party was not defeated in the Delhi election as its tally remained at zero like in 2015, and so it was the BJP’s loss.

“We were zero earlier, and this time too we are zero. So it’s not our defeat. It’s a defeat for the BJP,” he told PTI, referring to the election trends which gave the Congress no seat in the Delhi assembly election.

After winning Kejriwal alluded to in his victory speech.

“Kejriwal me to address the crowd by chanting ”Baharat Mata Ki Jai’, ‘Vande-Matram, and then spoke- I want to thank every resident of Delhi for giving us a third chance. This is a win for Delhi and for every resident, who voted for me thinking of me as their son. It is a win for every family who now gets 24-hour electricity, good education,” Kejriwal said. Describing himself as Delhi’s “son”  and finally after the defeat BJP Delhi chief took responsibility for the unexpected loose and also stated- we will review why we failed to meet our own expectations: Delhi BJP chief Manoj Tiwari after poll results.
