A day after the exit polls gave the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) a clear and decisive victory in the Delhi Assembly elections, the national convenor of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), Arvind Kejriwal, dismissed these polls as fake. He claimed that the elections were part of a larger plan to destabilize his party and influence AAP leaders.

In a post on X, Kejriwal strongly condemned the exit poll results, saying they are being used as a tool to manipulate public perception and weaken AAP’s momentum.

Arvind Kejriwal also accused BJP of trying to poach AAP candidates by offering lucrative deals. He wrote, “Some agencies are showing that the ‘Gali Galauj Party’ is winning more than 55 seats. In the last two hours, 16 of our candidates have received calls saying, ‘Leave your party and join theirs, we’ll make you ministers and give each of you Rs 15-15 crores.’ If they are indeed winning more than 55 seats, then why are they calling our candidates?

In other words, “The exit polls are manufactured ones to create a false sense of BJP’s sweeping victory and woo away AAP workers,” said Delhi CM.
“So, obviously these fake surveys are being conducted simply to create the atmosphere and break a few of our candidates. But, Gali Galauj walon, not even one of my people will break,” he said.
