NEW DELHI, FEB 13
The simple and candid Arvind Kejriwal, who is going to take oath as the Chief Minister of Delhi for straight third term on Sunday (February 16) has decided not to invite any Chief Minister or politicians from other states for the ceremony, said a party leader here on Thursday.
“No chief minister of political leaders from other states would be invited for Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s oath-taking ceremony at the Ramlila Maidan on February 16’’, said senior Aam Admi Party (AAP) convener Gopal Rai.
The oath-taking ceremony would be a Delhi-specific and AAP leader wanted to decongest the capital from VVIP movement on Sunday, party sources said.
This will be done to show respect to the people of New Delhi, who have reposed their faith in his leadership.
The AAP returned to power following a historic mandate, bagging 62 of the 70 assembly seats. The BJP, however, which was the main opposition party, managed to win only eight.
