‘We Were Zero Earlier, Are Zero Now’: Congress Leader Claims Delhi Polls Not A Defeat For The Party

Senior Congress leader Sadhu Singh Dharamso who also serves as a cabinet minister in Punjab has claimed that Delhi assembly results are a defeat for the BJP and not for the Congress.

“We were zero earlier, are zero now, so it's a BJP defeat not ours”, Dharamso was quoted as saying by the Press Trust of India.

It was earlier reported that the Congress has lot deposit in 67 out of the 70 Delhi assembly constituency and notched its lowest ever vote share tally of 4.36 per cent.

Despite the setback Congress party leaders have gone out of their way to take potshots at the BJP, while also praising AAP in the process. While not having any representation in the assembly, the party has announced that it will play the role of a constructive opposition.
