NEW DELHI: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Monday blamed dissatisfaction of public behind Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Congress defeats in the bypolls.
AAP's Gopal Italia secured victory in Visavadar whilst BJP's Rajendra Chavda claimed the Kadi seat on Monday as the Gujarat constituency bypoll counting concluded. In Punjab's Ludhiana West assembly seat, AAP candidate Sanjeev Arora showed promising leads, maintaining a 7,000-vote advantage over Congress contender Bharat Bhushan Ashu.
Regarding Ludhiana West results, Kejriwal noted that Punjab's residents have demonstrated increased support compared to 2022, indicating their satisfaction with the government's performance.
"The people of Gujarat are now fed up with BJP and they are seeing hope in Aam Aadmi Party," he posted on X in Hindi.
Expressing gratitude to Punjab and Gujarat residents, Kejriwal emphasised the electorate's rejection of both BJP and Congress in these bypolls. "Many congratulations to all of you on the splendid victory of Aam Aadmi Party in Visavadar seat of Gujarat and Ludhiana West seat of Punjab. Many congratulations and many thanks to the people of Gujarat and Punjab. In both the places, the victory margin has been almost double as compared to the last election," Kejriwal posted on X in Hindi.
"Both the parties, Congress and BJP, contested the elections together in both the places. Both of them had the same objective - to defeat AAP. But people rejected both these parties in both the places," he stated in the post.
The AAP headquarters in Delhi witnessed celebratory scenes as party workers distributed laddoos to mark their dual victories.

विसावदर और लुधियाना में AAP की शानदार जीत जनता का दोहरा भरोसा है। दोनों जगह BJP-कांग्रेस ने मिलकर AAP को हराना चाहा, लेकिन जनता ने इन दोनों पार्टियों को ही हरा दिया। पंजाब हमारे काम से खुश है तो गुजरात बदलाव चाहता है। https://t.co/sVru3m5aHB
