New Delhi: AAP national convenor and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday congratulated the Congress for its victory in the Karnataka assembly elections, and said the BJP should now realise that its tactics do not work anymore.
He, however, sought to downplay AAP’s dismal performance in the elections, saying a time will come when it will win in Karnataka as well. According to the Election Commission
website, AAP appeared to have drawn a blank, securing just 0.58 per cent of votes.
Kejriwal hailed his party candidate Sushil Rinku’s victory in the Jalandhar Lok Sabha bypoll in Punjab, terming it “historic and unprecedented”.
“Congratulations to them,” the chief minister told reporters at the party headquarters here when asked to comment on the Congress‘ victory in the Karnataka elections.
