New Dehli: After a glorious victory in Punjab polls, the Aam Admi party will hold ‘victory’ Rallies across Uttar Pradesh on March 12 said an party Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh on Friday.
Mr Singh said that the AAP’s victory in Punjab shows that people have accepted the party as a national alternative and want to use the broom (AAP’s election symbol) to clean politics.
The AAP will set up a strong organisation up to the village level in Uttar Pradesh to ensure equal rights for all. Work in this direction will start immediately, Mr Singh added.
He said the AAP will also organise district and state executive meetings in Lucknow on March 23 and 24 to review the party’s performance in the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections. Expanding the party organisation in the state will also be discussed during the meetings.
The Aam Admi Party contested in all 403 Assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh, although it failed to bag any seats.

The BJP won 255 assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh. Its allies Apna Dal (S) and Nishad Party bagged 12 seats and six seats, respectively.
The Samajwadi Party won 111 seats and its alliance partners Suheldev Bharatiya Samaj Party and Rashtriya Lok Dal got six and eight seats, respectively.
The Congress and the Jansatta Dal got two seats each and the Bahujan Samaj Party bagged one.
