Kejriwal invites PM Modi to his swearing-in ceremony

Delhi CM-designate Arvind Kejriwal has invited Prime Minister Narendra Modi to attend his swearing-in ceremony on 16th February. Mr Kejriwal's third oath ceremony after a landslide victory in Delhi will feature no chief minister or political leaders from other states.

New Delhi: AAP convenor Arvind Kejriwal has invited Prime Minister Narendra Modi to his swearing-in ceremony on Sunday.

AAP sources said an invite was sent to the prime minister on Thursday.

Kejriwal will take oath as Delhi Chief minister along with his cabinet at Ramlila Maidan at 10 am on Sunday.

On Tuesday, AAP scored his second massive victory in Delhi, limiting the BJP to a single-digit score of 8 seats, which, however, is an improvement on its 2015 tally of three. The Congress, which ruled Delhi for 15 years till 2013, won zero seats.

Mr Kejriwal says AAP's victory signals the victory of a "new kind of politics", one based on work.
