Rekha Gupta Becomes Delhi’s New Chief Minister, Parvesh Verma Appointed Deputy CM

 In a significant political development, Rekha Gupta has been appointed as the new Chief Minister of Delhi, with Parvesh Verma assuming the role of Deputy Chief Minister. This announcement follows the Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) decisive victory in the recent Delhi Legislative Assembly elections, marking the party's return to power in the capital after nearly three decades.


The Delhi Legislative Assembly elections were held on February 5, 2025, witnessing a voter turnout of 60.54%. The BJP secured a commanding majority by winning 48 out of 70 seats, a substantial increase from their previous tally of 8 seats in the 2020 elections. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), which had been in power for the past decade, managed to secure only 22 seats, a significant decline from their previous 62-seat majority. Notably, several prominent AAP leaders, including Arvind Kejriwal, lost their constituencies. The Indian National Congress continued its decline, failing to win any seats for the third consecutive election.

Rekha Gupta, representing the Shalimar Bagh constituency, is a first-time MLA who has rapidly ascended within the party ranks. Born in 1974 in Nandgarh village, Jind district, she relocated to Delhi in 1976. Gupta's political journey commenced with the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) during her academic tenure at Delhi University, where she held positions as secretary and principal of the students' union. Her educational background includes an LLB degree from Chaudhary Charan Singh University, Meerut, obtained in 2022. Prior to her legislative role, she served as a councillor and held significant positions within the BJP, including membership in the party's national executive and general secretary of the Delhi state unit.

Parvesh Verma, the newly appointed Deputy Chief Minister, brings a wealth of political experience to the administration. As a seasoned leader within the BJP, Verma's expertise is expected to complement Gupta's leadership, aiming to steer Delhi towards a new phase of governance and development.

The official oath-taking ceremony is scheduled for February 20 at Ramlila Maidan, with extensive preparations underway to mark this historic transition. This leadership change signifies a pivotal moment in Delhi's political landscape, reflecting the electorate's desire for renewed governance and development.
