BJP’s Delhi Govt Oath Ceremony Delayed Until PM Modi Returns from US: Sources
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has made a historic comeback to power in Delhi after a 27-year hiatus, securing 48 seats in the recent assembly elections. However, the much-anticipated oath ceremony for the new BJP government in Delhi is expected to wait until after Prime Minister Narendra Modi returns from his official visit to the United States on February 15.
PM Modi’s visit to Washington DC, scheduled for February 12 and 13, marks him as one of the first world leaders to visit during Donald Trump’s second term. His absence means the BJP’s grand oath-taking event, expected to draw all top NDA leaders and Chief Ministers, will have to wait, sources from within the party have confirmed.

The BJP, under Modi’s leadership, adopted a strategy similar to previous state elections by not revealing their Chief Minister candidate beforehand.

The BJP’s strategy to keep the CM candidate under wraps until after the election has created a dynamic political atmosphere in Delhi. With the party now in a position to form the government, the discussions and debates about leadership will intensify.

With Delhi witnessing a significant political shift, the coming days will be crucial in determining not only who will lead the state but also how BJP will govern post their impressive victory. Each contender brings a unique background and political acumen to the table, promising an interesting phase for Delhi’s political landscape.
