In a significant moment for Delhi, Atishi, a key leader from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), was sworn in as the youngest Chief Minister in the capital’s history today. The low-profile ceremony saw Atishi taking the oath alongside five cabinet ministers. Her parents, renowned academicians Vijay Singh and Tripta Wahi, were present at the ceremony, watching with pride as their daughter made history.
The event also saw the attendance of former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, who played a pivotal role in Atishi’s political career. She had served as his trusted advisor, particularly shaping Delhi’s groundbreaking educational reforms. The understated nature of the ceremony reflected Atishi’s no-nonsense, grounded leadership style, which resonates with many.
Now taking on the highest office in Delhi, Atishi’s leadership is expected to usher in a new era of inclusive governance and progress. Known for her innovative thinking and focus on education, her vision for the capital is one of growth, equity, and development, marking a fresh chapter in Delhi’s political landscape.
