Delhi CM Suspense: The first picture of the invitation card for the swearing-in ceremony of the BJP government in Delhi has surfaced. The card mentions that the oath ceremony of the Chief Minister and Council Of Ministers will be held at noon on February 20 (Thursday) at the Ramlila Maidan.

The decision about the new chief minister will be made in the BJP legislature party meeting to be held at the party's Delhi unit office this evening. BJP has come to power after 26 years, defeating the Aam Aadmi Party. 

The meeting will be held in the presence of BJP's central observers whose names are yet to be declared. The new chief minister after being chosen by the party MLAs will meet Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena at the Raj Niwas to stake claim to power.

Preparations are in full swing for a grand swearing-in ceremony at Ramlila Maidan as around 50,000 people, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, his cabinet colleagues and the chief minister of NDA-ruled states, are expected to attend the ceremony.

Over 50 celebrities including Akshay Kumar and Vivek Oberoi, famous industrialists like Mukesh Ambani and Gautam Adani and diplomats from other countries have been sent invitations to attend the ceremony.

Many in the party say that the BJP might choose a "dark horse" as Delhi's next chief minister. The party opted for the same strategy in Rajasthan, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha and Chhattisgarh.

The contest between BJP MLAs for the Chief Minister's post has narrowed down to three names. Sources have told ABP News that the party will pick the CM from three names and they are Rekha Gupta, Ashish Sood and Vijendra Gupta.
