Asked whether he would be able to live up to the promises in the manifesto, Kejriwal said the party would fulfil the "strong manifesto", which was prepared in consultation with experts.

The AAP leader said that some of the things which are in the manifesto can be implemented "within hours" of forming the government and it would be done. An order for audit of accounts of power distribution companies and issues relating to water is stated to be high on its agenda.

A civil servant-turned-politician Kejriwal held four public meetings in his New Delhi Assembly constituency, and at all the places majority of people gave their go-ahead to form the government.

He said out of 280 public meetings held till tonight, people at a majority of places said "yes" to formation of government with the support from Congress.

The deadlock over government formation in Delhi continued for nearly two weeks after the announcement of the results on December 8. AAP has 28 seats while Congress with 8 in a House of 70 has agreed to give outside support. BJP is the single largest party with 31 seats in its kitty.

Kejriwal accepted it was a unstructured way of conducting the referendum but it gave the party a rough idea about the people's view on the issue.
