New Delhi: Political leaders cutting across political parties have congratulated Arvind Kejriwal after he took over as seventh Chief Minister of India.
Congress, BJP and Left parties today congratulated Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, hoping that the new government will “live up to the expectations” of the people and fulfil promises made by his Aam Aadmi Party during the assembly polls.
Congress general secretary Shakeel Ahmed said the party will “continue their support” if the new regime fulfils the promises made earlier.
“He has become the Chief Minister... and I hope he will fulfil the promises based on which people voted for him and his party. I congratulate him. I wish he is able to fulfil the expectations of the people,” he said.
“The job of running a government is with the ruling party and we'll all work together. Delhi people have problems of electricity, water, jhuggi and pucca houses, permanent jobs for contractual employees...and if they fulfil those promises, Congress will continue to support the new government,” he added.
