The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) will announce its new Chief Minister for Delhi at 12 noon after its legislative party meeting today (September 17), ANI reported.
The meeting will take place at the Chief Minister’s residence at 11 am, as per an ANI report.
This comes as AAP convenor and Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal is set to resign from the post today. He will meet Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena at 4:30 pm today to submit his resignation.
Who will be the next Delhi CM?
While there is no one prominent name, discussions saw several MLAs from the reserved category and minority community being considered.
“Nothing is decided as yet. However, there is speculation that AAP may project some Dalit or Muslim legislator to hold the chief minister’s post in view of the assembly polls,” AAP insiders told PTI.
