Atishi, a prominent leader of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), is set to be sworn in as the Chief Minister of Delhi on September 21, 2024. This momentous occasion will make her the third woman ever to hold the office of Delhi CM. Atishi steps into this role following the resignation of Arvind Kejriwal, who endorsed her for the top post.
During her time in Kejriwal’s cabinet, Atishi was responsible for key portfolios such as education, finance, and public works, gaining a reputation for her effective governance. While her term is expected to be brief due to upcoming Assembly elections in February 2025 her appointment has sparked significant interest. Two new ministers are likely to join her cabinet during the oath ceremony, ensuring continuity in governance as the city heads towards elections.
