Delhi minister Atishi will become the next chief minister of the national capital, succeeding Arvind Kejriwal.

This decision emerged from a legislative meeting of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) where party leader Dilip Pandey suggested that Kejriwal choose his successor.

When Kejriwal reportedly proposed Atishi’s name, all AAP MLAs unanimously supported her, leading to her election as the leader of the legislature party, reports said.
