By : Sandhya
The wait for new Delhi chief minister is likely to end tomorrow. The Bharatiya Janata Party's legislative party meeting will be held on Monday at 3pm, ANI reported citing sources. All the 48 newly elected BJP MLAs will assemble at the Delhi BJP office to name their leader, who will be sworn in as the new chief minister of the capital.
On Friday, BJP spokesperson Ajay Alok said, "Prime Minister Narendra Modi is returning (from his foreign visit) by tonight. There will be a meeting of our parliamentary board tomorrow or the day after. Delhi's new CM will be before you."
The BJP had won 48 out of 70 seats in the Delhi assembly elections, ousting the Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) from power in the national capital. The AAP, which ruled Delhi for more than 10 years, ended up winning just 22 seats in the hotly contested elections, the results of which were declared on February 8.
