Taking to micro-blogging site Twitter, the Delhi chief minister said, Honour People’s verdict, all our party members worked hard, our struggle will continue(Janata Ka faisla sar aankhon par sabhi karyakartaon ne bahut mehnat ki, Sangharsh Jaari Rahega).

जनता का फ़ैसला सर माथे पे। सभी कार्यकर्ताओं ने बहुत मेहनत की। संघर्ष जारी रहेगा।
