This may be the first time in 70 years that positive votes will be cast in the name of schools, hospitals and roads," Kejriwal said."So far, people have only been voted because the government did not improve the quality of schools or because the roads were not maintained. This time around, people will vote because the quality of schools, roads and hospitals have been improved," he added.The Chief Minister also appealed the people of the city to vote for the development of the city."Only vote for us if you think we have done good work in the city. Do not vote for AAP if you think we have not worked. This time, vote for Delhi, vote for the country and development of your children and family," Kejriwal said.He also invited suggestions from all opposition parties for their mfesto and said, "We want the support of all parties and people of the city. If they have good suggestions. We will add it to our mfesto and implement it if we come to power."The key contest in Delhi is between the ruling Aam Aadmi Party, BJP and Congress.In 2015 assembly polls, AAP won 67 of 70 seats while the BJP could win only three.
