“I congratulate the BJP for the victory and I hope that they’ll work for the people of Delhi… I have no sympathy for a man who crushed the dreams of AAP party workers. Delhi is now free from him,” Mr Vishwas, a founder member of the AAP, told the news agency ANI.<\/p>\n

He also claimed that Mr Kejriwal, who lost his New Delhi seat, used the AAP workers’ dreams for his “personal ambitions”.\u00a0<\/p>\n
