Youth made up a major chunk of the crowd at the swearing in ceremony of Arvind Kejrial as Delhi Chief Minister.
Swept by euphoria, the youth witnessed the historic occassion, content that their vote made a difference in recent assembly elections.
Jayant Parashar (23), who said he had cast his ballot for the first time, came to the swearing in function with his friend Calvin Chiramel.
Both of them are members of the band called Woody Acouche Project and played a song 'Samaroh' composed by them outside the Ramlila ground before the swearing in. "The song narrates the situation of the youth in India," Jayant said.
Playing guitar and djembe, Jayant and Calvin sang "Ab phas gaya launda fashion mein, kyun ki khud se ladega tashan mein, Mulk ki mitti mathe pe kyunki sainik sabke saaath ke sajega samaroh lagega samaroh."
The crowd entering the Ramlila Ground also lent their voice to the duo.

For 24-year old Nivedita, a resident of Mayur Vihar, Kejriwal has changed the entire grammer of politics.
"It was so nice hearing a CM sing in public. Moreover, he came in a Metro. He is so down to earth and soft spoken. He will definitely do a great job," she said.
There were some men who even dressed like Arvind Kejriwal and other groups holding brooms rejoicing in the celebration.
However, it was hard luck for birthday girl Alia Akhtar, a class twelve student who came to attend the event with her class friends after school hours.
