Punjab Newsline, Chandigarh, December 22-
The AAP has thanked the people of Punjab for its victory in the municipal elections. The party stated that the results of the municipal elections reaffirm the trust that urban voters have shown in the AAP, just as they did in the by-elections.
Punjab AAP President Aman Arora, along with AAP MP Malvinder Singh Kang and party leaders Dr. Sunny Ahluwalia and Ferry Sofat, addressed a press conference at the party office in Chandigarh to thank the public and congratulate all the victorious candidates.
Arora declared that the AAP is now officially the No. 1 party in Punjab's urban areas. He said the illusion that the BJP and Congress are the strongest parties in urban areas has been shattered. In this election, AAP won more than 55% of the seats. Together, Akali-BJP and Congress couldn't even secure 45%. Arora mentioned that out of 977 wards, the results of 961 wards were declared yesterday. Of these, AAP candidates won in 522 wards. Meanwhile, Congress managed to win only 20% of the seats, securing 191 wards.
