Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday released a report card, listing out top 10 achievements of the AAP government in the last five years.
The Kejriwal government has listed quality education, free health facility and subsidised electricity as its main achievements.
"We are sevaks (servants) of the public and it is our responsibility to present our report card of our performance," Kejriwal said.
"The kind of historic majority we got in the last election, we have done the same kind of historic work in the last five years," he said.
The AAP national convenor said the education budget has increased three times from Rs 6,600 crore to Rs 20,000 crore.
Kejriwal claimed that in the last 70 years, a total of 17,000 classrooms were constructed in government schools in Delhi while during AAP's five-year tenure, 20,000 classrooms were built.

The second achievement listed in the report card is free health facility under the title of 'Quality Healthcare for All'.
"We are the only government to spend 13 per cent of its budget on health. The budget was also increased from Rs 3,500 crore to Rs 7,500 crore," the chief minister said.
"We also developed a vaccine for dengue with the help of the people of Delhi to fight the disease, which is called '10 Hafte, 10 Baje, 10 Minute'," he said.
On providing subsidised electricity to residents of the national capital, Kejriwal said Delhi is the only city in India which has 24-hour electricity.
Talking about providing piped water supply to every household in Delhi, he said, "About 14 lakh people have been benefited through it. Water has been supplied to 1,554 unauthorised colonies," the chief minister said.
"When our government was formed, the water situation in Delhi was in shambles. We increased the piped water supply from 58 per cent to 93 per cent. How is it possible that we could do all this work in five years but in the last 70 years, other governments were not able to supply water," he said.
The report card was released by the party ahead of the assembly elections in Delhi due early next year.
Over the next two weeks, the Aam Aadmi Party will take the report card to 35 lakh households, senior party leader Gopal Rai said.
During this period, the party is also planning to organise seven town halls and 700 'mohalla sabhas'.
The AAP won 67 of the assembly 70 seats in the 2015 Delhi Assembly polls.
On regularising unauthorised colonies in the city, the AAP leader said, "It is very easy to give a speech at Ramlila Maidan on unauthorized colonies, but it is quite difficult to work on the ground for their development."
"It also said that Delhi maintained a revenue surplus over the last five years, and before that, it was in loss. We have decreased the taxes and cost of living for the people of Delhi and provided most basic amenities for free, and we are still in profit," he said
