AAP Questions Delay In Oath Ceremony

Meanwhile, caretaker CM Atishi attacked the BJP for not announcing the name of her successor. "10 days have passed since the results of the Delhi elections were declared. The people of Delhi had expected that the BJP would declare its CM face on the 9th, the swearing-in ceremony would take place on the 10th and then their work would begin," she said at a press conference.

"But the public kept waiting. Even after ten days, the BJP has not been able to decide on the CM. It has been proved that the BJP does not have a single CM candidate to run the Delhi government. Today, it is clear that the Prime Minister does not trust any of the 48 MLAs; none of them has the ability to run the government," Atishi added.

The BJP secured 48 seats in the 70-member Delhi Assembly, while the AAP won 22 seats. The election results were declared on February 8 following polling on February 5. The BJP's victory ended the AAP's decade-long rule in the national capital.
