"From the last two times they're (BJP) winning by 25-0, but things have changed now and in favour of Congress. I can't say about the seats that we will get but the result will be surprising. The party in power should talk about the burning issues of people like we have given 5 Nyay and 25 guarantees in the manifesto but the BJP won't talk about it or better than it, they say that the Congress' manifesto is influenced by the Muslim League. What does it mean? This shows PM Modi is rattled... It's not about the manifesto but the credibility, when PM Modi won in 2014, situations were different..."

"It's our fortune that we are witnessing this time when we are moving forward with as resolution of 'Viksit Bharat' under the leadership of PM Modi. 10 years ago, politics was in deep apathy. Common man used to say that politics will change nothing, things will go like this only...PM Modi in 10 years has changed the definition, culture...and the resolution to bring change through politics."
"It was very sad to see that he isn't getting the facilities which are available even to hardcore criminals. What's his fault? You're treating him as if you have caught one of the biggest terrorists in the country. You're treating him as if you have caught one of the biggest terrorists in the country. What does PM Modi want?... Arvind Kejriwal who is 'kattar imaandaar', who started the politics of transparency and ended the BJP's politics is being treated like this. When I asked about how he has been doing, he said forget about me tell me how things are going in Punjab? Because we do the politics of 'work'...AAP is a disciplined group, we all are together and standing firm with Arvind Kejriwal. When the results will be announced on June 4, AAP will rise as a big political power."
