BJP's chief ministerial candidate Harsh Vardhan today thanked voters for giving the party the maximum number of seats in 70-member Delhi assembly.

"I am confident that we will be able to serve the people of Delhi," he said, declining to take questions about the formation of next government as the party looked short of majority in the assembly.

Vardhan extended his wishes to Arvind Kejriwal of AAP and outgoing CM Sheila Dikshit, who is likely to lose her New Delhi seat.

"I will congratulate Kejriwal on the good show of his party against expectations. I will also offer my thanks to Dikshit for serving Delhi for 15 years," he said.
 

He expressed happiness over his resounding victory from Krishna Nagar constituency and said he was thankful to people for electing him with a whopping margin of over 43,150 votes.
