New Delhi: The AAP has won the elections to the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD Election), dislodging the BJP from power after 15 years. The Arvind Kejriwal-led party has vowed to improve civic amenities. BJP, on the other hand, took solace in securing over a hundred wards despite exit polls predicting its rout.
AAP won 132 seats, well past the halfway mark in the 250-member civic body, as against the BJP's 104. Congress has won from nine wards.
Addressing supporters at the party office in Delhi, Mr Kejriwal said he would try to live up to people's expectations and urged all parties to come together to improve Delhi.
"We have to improve the condition of Delhi (for which we) need the cooperation of the BJP, the Congress and also blessings of the Centre and the prime minister," he said.
