New Delhi, 17 September (H.S.): At 43 years old, Atishi is set to make history by becoming the youngest Chief Minister of Delhi. This follows Arvind Kejriwal's resignation to Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena on September 17.

As a senior leader of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the current manager of several crucial portfolios in the Delhi cabinet, including finance, water, education, and power, Atishi has been a key figure in the administration. Kejriwal recommended Atishi as his successor in a meeting with AAP legislators and received unanimous support. He then met with L-G Saxena to tender his resignation, paving the way for Atishi's appointment. A delegation of AAP legislators will soon meet with L-G Saxena to formally stake their claim for forming a new government under Atishi's leadership.

This comes after Kejriwal's announcement that he will not return to the Chief Minister's position until his party is re-elected in the upcoming state elections, stating it as the people's order. With her experience and dedication, Atishi is poised to lead Delhi towards progress and development as its youngest Chief Minister.
