Breached BJP’s Gujarat fortress now, will win it next time, says Kejriwal

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday thanked the people for helping the Aam Aadmi Party “breach the BJP’s fortress” in Gujarat and asserted that the party would win the state the next time.

In a video message, Kejriwal said though the AAP did not win many seats in Gujarat, the votes it secured helped it attain the status of a national party.

The AAP won five seats and secured a vote share of 12.92 per cent in the Gujarat assembly elections, as declared by the State Election Commission.

“I am thankful to the people of Gujarat for helping us attain the status of national party. Very few parties enjoy the status and now we are one of them. Ours is only a 10-year-old party,” the Delhi chief minister said.
