The political landscape of the national capital is set to witness a significant shift with the appointment of Delhi’s new CM in 2024, as the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) announced Atishi as the successor to Arvind Kejriwal. Atishi, a key figure in the AAP and a close ally of Kejriwal, has played a pivotal role in the governance of Delhi, holding multiple portfolios including finance, education, and public works. As the new Chief Minister, she will be the third woman to lead the capital and the eighth CM of Delhi.
Atishi: The New Face of Delhi’s Leadership
Atishi’s rise to the position of Delhi’s new CM in 2024 marks a historic moment for both her and the AAP. Known for her strong leadership and dedication to improving education, she has been a prominent face in Delhi’s governance. Her role as the Education Minister has earned her widespread recognition, with reforms that transformed the public education system in the city. Under her leadership, Delhi’s schools have seen significant improvements, setting new standards for education in India.
In addition to education, Atishi holds crucial portfolios like finance and public works, making her an integral part of the city’s administration. Her ability to manage multiple responsibilities effectively is seen as a testament to her leadership skills and vision for Delhi.
Legislative Party Meeting Confirms Atishi’s Leadership
The Aam Aadmi Party made the formal announcement during a legislative party meeting, confirming Atishi as Delhi’s new CM in 2024. Saurabh Bharadwaj, a senior AAP leader and minister, ruled out any speculation about Sunita Kejriwal, Arvind Kejriwal’s wife, succeeding him as CM. This decision came after extensive discussions within the party, with Kejriwal meeting with top AAP leaders during the Political Affairs Committee meeting to finalize the leadership change.
The Delhi Assembly is set to convene on September 26 and 27, where the transition will be formalized. This shift in leadership is expected to strengthen the AAP’s governance model, which has consistently focused on public welfare, education, and healthcare.
Arvind Kejriwal’s Resignation
Arvind Kejriwal’s decision to step down as Delhi CM comes after his release from Tihar jail on bail in the excise policy case. In a surprising turn of events, Kejriwal announced his resignation and called for early elections in Delhi, stating that he would not return to the chief minister’s chair until he received a “certificate of honesty” from the public. Kejriwal, a prominent figure in Indian politics, has long been associated with anti-corruption movements, and his resignation is seen as a bold move in light of the allegations.
Kejriwal is set to meet Lt. Governor VK Saxena to officially tender his resignation. According to party sources, Kejriwal will resign on Tuesday, marking the end of his long tenure as CM of Delhi. Despite stepping down, Kejriwal remains the national convener of the AAP and will continue to play a significant role in shaping the party’s future direction.
The Future Under Atishi’s Leadership
As Delhi’s new CM in 2024, Atishi is expected to carry forward the legacy of good governance established by the AAP. Her focus on education, infrastructure, and financial reforms will likely define her leadership style. Her appointment as CM comes at a time when Delhi faces significant challenges, from managing the city’s pollution crisis to addressing healthcare infrastructure gaps, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Atishi’s experience in handling the finance portfolio will be crucial as Delhi navigates through economic recovery and growth. The AAP’s emphasis on public welfare schemes is expected to continue under her leadership, with a renewed focus on inclusive governance.
Kejriwal’s Legacy and AAP’s Future
Arvind Kejriwal leaves behind a mixed legacy as he steps down from the chief ministership of Delhi. His tenure was marked by innovative policies in healthcare and education, but also controversies surrounding his governance style and political challenges. His decision to resign amid allegations of corruption showcases his commitment to integrity, but it also leaves the AAP in a transitional phase.
Atishi’s appointment as Delhi’s new CM in 2024 could signal a new era for the AAP. Her leadership will be critical in maintaining the party’s momentum as it gears up for future elections, not just in Delhi but across India. With Atishi at the helm, the AAP aims to strengthen its hold on the capital and expand its influence nationwide.
Conclusion
The announcement of Delhi’s new CM in 2024 marks a new chapter for both Atishi and the Aam Aadmi Party. As the third woman to lead the city, Atishi brings with her a wealth of experience, dedication, and a track record of reform. Her appointment comes at a critical time, and all eyes will be on her as she steps into the role of Chief Minister, tasked with steering Delhi toward a brighter and more sustainable future.
This leadership transition is set to shape the political landscape of Delhi in the years to come, with Atishi emerging as a key figure not just in the city, but on the national stage.
