Raghav Chadha, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA from the Rajendra Nagar assembly constituency in Delhi, on Thursday said that the Arvind Kejriwal-led party will soon replace the Congress as the country’s biggest opposition. 

Chadha’s statement came as AAP is set to sweep Punjab, leading 89 seats as of 11:15 AM. The Congress follows with a lead in 13 constituencies and the BJP in five. 

If AAP takes Punjab, it will be the only party after the BJP and Congress to govern two or more states. It won Delhi in 2015 and 2020.
