Atishi sworn in as Delhi chief minister, Arvind Kejriwal attends ceremony
Atishi became the 17th female chief minister in the country and third in the national capital after the late Sushma Swaraj and the late Sheila Dikshit. The officials at the lieutenant governor's office on Friday evening said President Droupadi Murmu has appointed Atishi as the chief minister of Delhi from the date of her being sworn in and has also accepted Arvind Kejriwal's resignation.
The President has also cleared the appointment of five ministers, they added.
Atishi, however, will have a brief tenure in office as assembly elections in the national capital are due in February.
