New Delhi: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), after a resounding victory in the Delhi Assembly elections, is poised to announce its new Chief Minister. While an official date remains unconfirmed, strong indications point towards a grand swearing-in ceremony on Thursday, February 20, 2025, at approximately 4:30 PM.
When and where will the oath-taking ceremony be held?
The location remains officially unannounced, but speculation centres on two prominent venues, the historic Ramlila Maidan and the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium. The ceremony promises to be a major event in the national capital, with an extensive guest list anticipated, including Chief Ministers from various BJP-ruled states (such as Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, and Madhya Pradesh), religious leaders, and prominent figures from the film and sports industries.
Who all will attend Delhi CM’s oath-taking ceremony?
The suspense surrounding the CM candidate is a key element of the political drama. Although several names are circulating—from Parvesh Verma, who defeated Arvind Kejriwal in New Delhi, to Rekha Gupta, analysts suggest the BJP leadership might opt for a relatively less-known candidate, a strategy employed in previous state elections.
Who is the potential CM candidate?
They said that this approach aims to strike a delicate balance within the party and capitalise on the considerable public intrigue. The possibility of a one Chief Minister and two deputy Chief Ministers formula is also under consideration to manage caste dynamics.
When and where to watch oath-taking ceremony of Delhi CM?
For those eager to witness this important moment in Delhi’s political landscape, extensive live coverage is planned. Major news broadcasters, including Doordarshan, will provide live telecasts. Additionally, the BJP will live stream the event on its official X (formerly Twitter) and YouTube channels.
Numerous online news platforms, including the Youtube and broadcast channels of Newslive, will also offer detailed minute-by-minute updates. The swearing-in ceremony will mark a significant political shift, ending the Aam Aadmi Party’s long tenure and ushering in a new era of BJP governance in Delhi after a 27-year absence.
