With the BJP racing ahead in Haryana as per the early trends, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convener Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday said the "biggest lesson" of the assembly election results 2024 is that one should never be "overconfident" in the elections, reported news agency PTI.


The BJP looks forward to a comfortable win in Haryana, leading in 50 of the 90 assembly seats.


"Let us see what the results are in Haryana. The biggest lesson of this is that one should never be overconfident in the elections," said Kejriwal addressing a gathering of the AAP municipal councillors, reported PTI.


"No election should be taken lightly. Each election and each seat is tough," Arvind Kejriwal said on the Assembly election results 2024, reported PTI.

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.

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.

The AAP candidates were trailing on almost all the seats behind their BJP and Congress opponents.

Kejriwal had earlier during the poll campaign in Haryana asserted that no government would be formed in the state without the AAP's support.

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.

"You 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," said the former Delhi chief minister, reported PTI.

Cong claims 'unexplained slowdown' in updating results of Haryana polls on ECI website

The Congress on Tuesday raised with the Election Commission the issue of an "unexplained slowdown" in updating of results of Haryana elections on the poll watchdog's website and urged it to direct officials to update accurate figures so that "false news and malicious narratives" can be countered immediately.

In a letter to the Chief Election Commissioner and Election Commissioners, Congress general secretary in-charge communications Jairam Ramesh said that over the last two hours between 9 and 11 am there has been an "unexplained slowdown" in updating of results on the ECI's website.
