From cracking IIT, UPSC to Delhi CM, Kejriwal always had one-shot triumph

Many laughed at this move and others dismissed Kejriwal as a political greenhorn, but he and his party started poll preparation way ahead in April.

And the outcome was stunning. The nascent AAP not only won 28 out of 70 seats in its debut election in Delhi but Kejriwal himself emerged as a giant killer sweeping Sheila Dikshit out not just from office but also her constituency.

Thumping the three-time Chief Minister by a massive margin of 25,864 votes, Kejriwal became an MLA after contesting his very first elections and is now all set to be the Chief Minster tomorrow.

Governor Najeeb Jung will administer the oath of office and secrecy to him at Ramlila ground, in what seems to be poetic justice as he first shot to fame on this very venue in 2001 during the Janlokpal agitation.
