Atishi swearing-in highlights: Won’t let BJP’s conspiracy to succeed, have to make Kejriwal CM again, says Atishi

Atishi swearing-in highlights: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Atishi took oath as Delhi’s new Chief Minister at Raj Niwas on Saturday. Atishi becomes the 17th woman chief minister in the country and the third woman Chief Minister of Delhi, after Sushma Swaraj and Sheila Dikshit.

Atishi, a first-time legislator, will have a brief tenure in office as assembly elections are due in February.

During Arvind Kejriwal’s time in Tihar jail in connection with the excise policy case, Atishi was a key face of the party.

Five AAP leader — Gopal Rai, Kailash Gahlot, Saurabh Bharadwaj, Imran Hussain and Mukesh Ahlawat — were also administered oath as ministers in CM Atishi-led Delhi government.

The oath-taking ceremony at Raj Niwas was a low-key affair as the mood in the party is not upbeat because of Arvind Kejriwal’s resignation. 

AAP’s national convenor Kejriwal resigned as the Delhi Chief Minister on September 17. He stepped down from the post days after he was released on bail by the Supreme Court in connection with the excise policy ‘scam’ case.

Announcing his decision to resign, Kejriwal said hat he would return to the post only after getting a “certificate of honesty” from Delhi people in the assembly poll. He also demanded early elections in Delhi but did not ask for early dissolution of the Delhi Assembly. The Delhi Assembly Elections is scheduled to be held in February next year. Meanwhile, the AAP is busy campaigning for the upcoming polls in neighbouring Haryana.
