He signalled that his new term will be more work oriented and less conflicted.
He did a good job by offering the invitation of his oath taking ceremony to PM Narendra Modi.
This shows his willingness to work in coordination with the central government.

The conflict between the Delhi government and the Central government has delayed many developmental projects in the capital city earlier before.

Besides this, the shortage of public busses in the capital is also a cause of concern. There is a need for more public buses in the city to reduce the amount of pollution in the city.
Having made bus rides free for women, the AAP government now has to ensure that there are sufficient numbers of buses on the roads. In his 10 points guarantee card, Arvind Kejriwal has promised for more than 11,000 public buses and to increase the Delhi Metro Network upto 500 KM.
