Delhi's new chief minister Arvind Kejriwal made the word 'Crocin' trend on Twitter.
Kejriwal, who has been suffering from fever for some days, clearly sounded unwell. He said in his speech that he had come to the venue after taking Crocin.
Addressing thousands at the Ramlila Maidan after taking oath as chief minister, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader pressed the need to make Delhi a full state.
In his second stint as chief minister, the 46-year-old struck a pragmatic note, saying he will periodically consult leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party and the Congress on ways to develop Delhi.
The tens of thousands packing the sprawling ground in the heart of the capital cheered him when he first took the oath of office and secrecy, followed by six ministers, and then addressed them.
"After our (earlier) 49 days in office, now we have the confidence that we will finish off corruption in Delhi," he said to loud cheers. "We have to make Delhi the first corruption-free city in India. We can do it."
He repeatedly urged his ministers, legislators and AAP colleagues never to show even the slightest hint of arrogance as members of the ruling party, saying it was arrogance which had destroyed the Congress and the BJP.
"We will have to constantly introspect... If arrogance creeps in, we will not be able to fulfil our mission."
Soon after his speech, the word 'Crocin' was trending on Twitter. Several jokes on Twitter said the makers of Crocin should thank Kejriwal for making Crocin trend.
BREAKING: Kejriwal to call for referendum on whether he should have one Crocin or two.

Was KEJRIWAL a medical rep in his last birth? So now from Bendaryl we've moved to Crocin.
