MCD poll results very crucial for Arvind Kejriwal, his AAP

These MCD poll results are very crucial for Arvind Kejriwal and his AAP as they are seeking an expansion ahead of the 2024 General elections. A victory in these municipal body elections will not just cement AAP's place in Delhi but will also fuel its aspiration to emerge as a serious contender to the BJP and PM Narendra Modi on the national scene.

Several exit polls have predicted a clear win for the Aam Aadmi Party in the Municipal Corporation of Delhi polls and an end to the BJP's 15-year rule at the civic body.

MCD mandate will show AAP is a fiercely-honest party, says Manish Sisodia

Ahead of the announcement of election results for the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD), Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia on Tuesday said that this mandate will be a signal from Delhi to the whole country that the Aam Aadmi Party is a "fiercely-honest party".

"This mandate will be a signal from Delhi to the whole country that AAP is a fiercely-honest party. The BJP levelled fake allegations against me, and ran a witch-hunt against Satyendar Jain. But the people of Delhi have proven with their mandate that there was no scam in Delhi and all the allegations levelled by the BJP were false, motivated by conspiracy and dirty politics," Sisodia said.

He also added that the people of Delhi will reject the BJP`s lies, conspiracy and dishonesty, and choose CM Arvind Kejriwal`s honesty and work-based politics.

"The BJP roped in many of its Chief Ministers and Union ministers to campaign against the AAP in the run-up to the MCD polls, but the public did not fall for its traps and completely rejected BJP`s politics of dishonesty," Sisodia said.
