Who will be the new Chief Minister of Delhi? The answer to this question has been found. Ever since Arvind Kejriwal announced his resignation from the post of Chief Minister, the speculations about who will be the new Chief Minister of Delhi started. However, these speculations have now come to an end. Atishi will now take charge as the Chief Minister of Delhi. The former chief minister had announced two days ago that he would leave the post of chief minister and some other Aam Aadmi Party leader would sit on the chief minister’s chair.
He made a big announcement after coming out of jail :
After coming out of Tihar Jail, Kejriwal held a meeting. He said that I will resign in the next two days. I have come to your court. Now you decide who was right. Even Manish Sisodia will not become Chief Minister. Delhi elections are in February, but we want elections to be held in November along with Maharashtra. Till then any leader of Aam Aadmi Party can become Chief Minister. I and Sisodia will now go to the public and let the public decide whether we are guilty or righteous. Now select Delhi CM as fast as possible. Until people decide whether Kejriwal is honest or not, I will not sit on the chair. If Kejriwal seems honest, give full vote to ‘Aap.’ Arvind Kejriwal announced to leave the Chief Minister’s chair after 48 hours on September 15. Since then, upheaval has started in the politics of Delhi, who will become the new Chief Minister of Delhi. Subsequently, a meeting of the Political Affairs Committee (PAC) was called today at Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s government residence. Meanwhile, the name of the new Chief Minister of Delhi could be discussed. Before the meeting, senior AAP leaders Manish Sisodia and Raghav Chadha reached Arvind Kejriwal’s house. The PAC meeting held at Kejriwal’s residence was attended by Arvind Kejriwal, Manish Sisodia, Sanjay Sharma, Durgesh Pathak, Atishi, Gopal Rai, Imran Hussain, Raghav Chadha, Rakhi Bidlan, Pankaj Gupta and ND Gupta. Arvind Kejriwal spent a total of 156 days in jail. He holds the record of the Chief Minister who has been in jail for the longest time in India. The ED arrested Kejriwal from his residence on March 21 in an alleged liquor corruption case. After 10 days of interrogation, Kejriwal was sent to Tihar Jail on June 1. After about 51 days, on May 10, Kejriwal was granted interim bail for 21 days to campaign for the Lok Sabha elections. On June 2, Kejriwal had surrendered in Tihar Jail. Kejriwal was lodged in Tihar Jail since the CBI arrested him in a money laundering case on June 26.
