Will make Delhi world’s ‘most progressive capital’, says Delhi CM Kejriwal

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has promised to make Delhi “the most progressive national capital in the world” on the eve of the completion of the AAP government’s seventh anniversary in power in the city on Tuesday.

 Kejriwal said the government has taken numerous significant steps towards the development of Delhi by following in the footsteps of Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar and Shaheed-e-Azam Bhagat Singh, stated a Delhi government statement.

The AAP national convener took oath as the chief minister of Delhi for the third time at the Ramlila Maidan here on February 16 last year after a massive victory of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in the assembly polls. The AAP won 62 of the 70 seats in 2020.

In the 2013 polls, the AAP had emerged as the second-largest party in the house and formed its first government in the national capital after taking outside support from the Congress. However, the government fell months later and the AAP returned to power in February 2015 by winning a whopping majority of 67 of 70 seats.
