“Dilliwalon, gazab kar diya aap logon ne, I love you… This the birth of a new kind of politics, the politics of work,” Kejriwal said, shortly after it became clear that he and his party had been installed back in power. (Express Photo by Tashi Tobgyal)

Amid the resounding victory, AAP leaders said they will assess the party’s performance in East and North East Delhi where it lost Gandhi Nagar, Laxmi Nagar, Rohtas Nagar, Ghonda, Karawal Nagar and Badarpur, in addition to Rohini and Vishwas Nagar where it was defeated in 2015 as well. Overall, the party maintained that the results were in line with its expectations. (Express Photo by Tashi Tobgyal)
