The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has regained power in Delhi after a 27-year hiatus, securing 48 out of 70 seats in the 2025 assembly elections.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), which previously held 62 seats, managed to secure only 22 seats this election, marking a significant drop in their political stronghold.
For the third consecutive term, the Indian National Congress failed to win a single seat in the Delhi assembly elections.
The announcement of the new CM was postponed due to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to France and the US between February 11-13.
The new Chief Minister's oath-taking ceremony is scheduled for February 20 at the historic Ramlila Maidan, a venue known for significant political events.
The oath-taking ceremony is expected to be a grand affair, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, and other top leaders in attendance.
Parvesh Verma, who defeated AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal in the New Delhi seat, is among the top contenders for the Chief Minister's position.
Speculations suggest that the BJP might appoint Delhi's first female Chief Minister, with names like Shikha Roy being considered.
