In a video that went viral on social media, the AAP chief said that if the predictions of the exit polls claim the BJP's victory again as shown on Sunday then he would launch a 'movement' to protest.

Senior AAP leaders such as Kumar Vishwas, Ashutosh, and other party legislators were also seen in the video.

After the party's defeat in Punjab and Goa elections, Kejriwal has been raising Electronic Voting Machines tampering. The party had also raised questions EVMs without voter-verifiable paper audit trail being used in MCD polls. It had demanded the state Election Commission to use ballot papers instead of EVMs.

Delhi Labour Minister Gopal Rai said that EVMs would be the only reason for the kind of results predicted by the pollsters.

He said that if EVMs are at play then these surveys are 100% correct and added that if the polls are fair then AAP will win with the majority.
