Delhi Chief Minister, Arvind Kejriwal, defined the Bihar elections result as the referendum against Prime Minister, Narendra Modi’s government. Congratulating the people of Bihar, Mr. Kejriwal said that a clear majority to the Grand Alliance is a slap on those who resort to hate politics. “People of Bihar proved that hate politics doesn’t work.”
Criticising Mr. Modi's style of governance, the Delhi CM said that he needs to tone down his arrogance. "The way the Prime Minister was working with arrogance and pride and the manner in which the Modi-Amit Shah duo were functioning dictatorially, this poll result has broken the Centre's arrogance," he said. Comparing their arrogance to that of Congress, he said, “They are as arrogant in one year just as Congress was after six-seven years in power.”
Advising Mr. Modi to learn from the Bihar elections and focus on the country, he said he hopes that the PM will stop interfering in the States. “We hope the Prime Minister will cancel his foreign trips and focus more on governance in the country,” he added.
Taking potshots at Amit Shah and BJP’s brass, Mr. Kejriwal said BJP MPs and MLAs from now on will be given due respect and given the opportunity to openly voice out their opinions. He congratulated Nitish Kumar and JD(U) leader for the ‘historic victory’. “Many congratulations Nitishji on this historic victory,” he earlier tweeted.
