DHAKA: After leading his party to an outsized win in Delhi, Arvind Kejriwal received a congratulatory call from India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who tweeted this information.
Arvind Kejriwal, who will return for a second term as Chief Minister, reportedly told the PM that he would like a meeting as soon as possible, reports NDTV.
“Yes, we will meet for tea,” the PM reportedly said, according to news agency ANI.
Modi defeated Kejriwal by a huge margin in the national election of India in 2014 where they ran for Parliament from Varanasi.
Modi campaigned extensively for the BJP in Delhi, but the party was trounced by Kejriwal and his Aam Aadmi Party.
