February 19th 2025.
After months of anticipation, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is finally set to announce the new chief minister of Delhi. The decision will be made during a crucial legislature party meeting at the BJP's Delhi unit office on Wednesday evening.
This comes after the BJP's historic victory in the February 5 Delhi Assembly elections, ending the Aam Aadmi Party's 26-year rule. The party leaders have confirmed that all arrangements have been made for the meeting, which is expected to commence at 7 pm.
During the meeting, the 48 BJP MLAs will select the Leader of the House in the Delhi Assembly, who will then take over as the chief minister. The party's central observers, whose names are yet to be revealed, will also be present at the meeting. Once the new chief minister is chosen by the MLAs, he will meet with Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena at the Raj Niwas to stake claim to power.
Meanwhile, preparations are in full swing for a grand swearing-in ceremony at Ramleela Ground on Thursday afternoon. Over 50,000 people, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, his cabinet colleagues, and NDA-ruled state chief ministers, are expected to attend the event.
As the BJP deliberates on who will lead the state, several names have emerged as potential candidates for the chief minister's post. These include Parvesh Verma, who defeated AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal in the elections, as well as former Delhi BJP presidents Vijender Gupta and Satish Upadhyay. Other leaders such as Pawan Sharma, Ashish Sood, Rekha Gupta, and Shikha Rai are also being considered.
Some other names being discussed within the party are Ravinder Indraj Singh, the MLA from Bawana, and Kailash Gangwal, who won the Madipur seat for the BJP for the first time. However, there is also speculation that the BJP leadership may surprise everyone by choosing a "dark horse" as Delhi's next chief minister, similar to their strategy in other states like Rajasthan, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, and Chhattisgarh.
All eyes are now on the BJP legislature party meeting, where the fate of Delhi's leadership will be decided. The party remains confident and determined to fulfill its promises and lead the capital city towards a brighter future.
