With the BJP racing ahead in Haryana as per the early trends, AAP convener Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday said the \u201cbiggest lesson\u201d of the poll results is that one should never be \u201coverconfident\u201d in the elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The BJP looks forward to a comfortable win in Haryana, leading in 50 of the 90 Assembly seats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLet us see what the results are in Haryana. The biggest lesson of this is that one should never be overconfident in the elections,\u201d said Kejriwal addressing a gathering of the AAP municipal councillors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNo election should be taken lightly. Each election and each seat is tough,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The AAP failed to reach a pre-poll alliance in Haryana with the Congress due to disagreement over number of seats to be contested by it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It independently contested 89 of the total 90 seats in the state after its demand for being given 9 seats was turned down by the Congress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The AAP candidates were trailing on almost all the seats behind their BJP and Congress opponents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kejriwal had earlier during the poll campaign in Haryana asserted that no government would be formed in the state without the AAP\u2019s support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He asked the party councillors to work hard for the Delhi Assembly polls due in February next year and ensure that the garbage was properly collected and disposed of from their wards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou will have the most important role in this (Delhi) election. We will win the elections just if you ensure there is proper garbage collection and disposal from your areas which is a very basic thing,\u201d said the former Delhi chief minister.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
