In an earlier tweet, the Delhi CM said in Hindi, “Today vote for making a neat and clean and beautiful Delhi, vote to form a corruption-free government (establishment) at the municipal corporation. I appeal to all the Delhi citizens to go for voting to form an honest and performing government at the MCD”.
