Atishi takes charge as Delhi Leader of Opposition. First time a woman has held this role, and for the first time in history, a woman will challenge a woman Chief Minister in the upcoming assembly session. Atishi thanks Arvind Kejriwal, the national convenor of Aam Aadmi Party, and the Legislative Party for trusting her. After 27 years, the BJP regained power in the national capital in the February 5 elections, winning 48 out of 70 assembly seats. AAP secured 22 seats, while Congress failed to win any. The BJP established the government on Wednesday, appointing Rekha Gupta, the Shalimar Bagh MLA, as Delhi’s chief minister, making her the fourth woman to hold the role in the city.
