    She further urged to the people of Delhi that their job is to make sure that Arvind Kejriwal will return as the Chief Minister, claiming that if AAP government does not win again then all the schemes and work done in the last ten years would be undone by BJP.

    “Now the people of Delhi need to work together to make Arvind Kejriwal the CM again in the upcoming elections in February.
