The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is poised to announce its new Chief Minister for Delhi today, following a decisive victory in the recent assembly elections. The party secured 48 out of 70 seats, marking a significant return to power in the national capital after 27 years. The legislative party meeting is scheduled for 7 PM at the state unit's office, where the newly elected MLAs will select their leader.

The swearing-in ceremony is planned for February 20 at Ramlila Maidan, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other top leaders expected to attend. Preparations are underway to accommodate approximately 30,000 attendees at the historic venue. The BJP is reportedly considering a first-time MLA for the Chief Minister's role, with speculation around both male and female candidates.

Names like Parvesh Verma, who defeated former CM Arvind Kejriwal, and Rekha Gupta, the Shalimar Bagh MLA, are among the potential contenders. The delay in announcing the Chief Minister has drawn criticism from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), which suggests internal disagreements within the BJP. However, BJP leaders assert that the decision will reflect the party's commitment to effective governance and development for Delhi's residents. As the city awaits the official announcement, anticipation builds around the new leadership set to steer Delhi's future.
