Arvind Kejriwal News: This time Arvind Kejriwal had to face defeat in the political battle of Delhi, which raises the question whether Saturn proved to be heavy for him? There are two main reasons for this discussion. First, this is the first time that the election results of Delhi came on Saturday. Second, the electoral performance of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) was very poor this time.Interestingly, Valentine's Week has always proved lucky for Arvind Kejriwal, but this time the public rejected him on Propose Day itself. After the election results, Kejriwal accepted his defeat and said that he will review it and respects the decision of the public.Did Saturn prove to be heavy?In the Delhi Assembly elections, Arvind Kejriwal as well as his party suffered a major setback.
