City Minister Gopal Rai announced the appointment, stating that Atishi would serve as Chief Minister until the next assembly elections, which the AAP hopes to hold in October or November of this year.
Atishi expressed gratitude to the party leadership and pledged to continue the work initiated by her predecessor, Arvind Kejriwal. She emphasized her commitment to implementing welfare schemes for the people of Delhi.
Kejriwal’s resignation from the post came just two days after his release from jail. He is scheduled to meet Delhi’s Lieutenant Governor, V.K. Saxena, this evening to formally tender his resignation.
