While taking charge, Atishi said, just like Bharata took care of Lord Ram’s sandals for 14 years and handled the charge, I will run the Delhi government for the next four months.
Delhi Chief Minister Atishi has taken charge at the CM residence. However, even during this time she was seen playing the role of Bharatwali for Kejriwal. She has taken charge by placing another chair next to Arvind Kejriwal’s chair in the CM office. She says that she will not sit on Arvind Kejriwal’s chair until the people of Delhi do not trust her honesty.
She said, just like Bharata preserved Lord Ram’s sandals for 14 years and took charge, I will also take charge of Delhi for the next four months. After taking charge as CM, Atishi said, I have taken charge as the Chief Minister of Delhi. Today my pain is the same as Bharata’s when Lord Ram had to go into exile for 14 years and Bharata had to take charge of the kingdom. Just like Bharata preserved Lord Ram’s sandals for 14 years and took charge, I will also run the Delhi government for the next four months.
A direct target on BJP
Atishi further said, Arvind Kejriwal has set an example of dignity and morality. For the last two years, BJP has left no stone unturned to tarnish the image of Arvind Kejriwal. False cases were filed against him, he was arrested and even put in jail for six months.
Atishi said, the chair of Delhi Chief Minister belongs to Arvind Kejriwal. I hope that the people of Delhi will elect him as CM again. Till then the chair will remain in this office and will wait for Arvind Kejriwal.
Let us tell you, after Arvind Kejriwal’s resignation, Atishi took oath as the Chief Minister on Saturday. Along with her, five Delhi ministers Kailash Gehlot, Gopal Rai, Saurabh Bhardwaj, Imran Hussain and Mukesh Ahlawat took oath. All the ministers have been allotted departments, but they have not taken charge yet. Health Minister Saurabh Bhardwaj took charge on Saturday evening itself, while the rest of the ministers will take charge on Monday along with the Chief Minister.
