Delhi CM Oath Ceremony HIGHLIGHTS: Rekha Gupta, newly elected CM of Delhi, took oath as Chief Minister on Thursday in the iconic Ramlila Maidan. First-time MLA Rekha Gupta is set to assume the top post, capping 11 days of suspense over who would get the top post following the BJP's return to power after more than 26 years, ending the 10-year rule of the Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP. Besides Gupta, cabinet ministers including Parvesh Verma also took oath.
The swearing-in ceremony in the national capital saw the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, and Rajnath Singh, among other key leaders of the saffron party.
More than 25,000 security personnel and over 15 companies of paramilitary forces have been deployed across the national capital for Thursday's oath ceremony of the new chief minister at Ramlila Maidan, a Delhi Police officer said. The ceremony is likely to be attended by top party leaders, including chief ministers from BJP-governed states.
"We have deployed more than 25,000 police personnel and over 15 companies of paramilitary forces," the officer said and added "robust" security arrangements were in place to maintain law and order. "More than 5,000 police and paramilitary force personnel are deployed in and around Ramlila Maidan. Around 2,500 strategic points were identified where heavy deployment has already been made," he added.
Gupta (50) was chosen as Leader of the House in the Delhi Assembly at the BJP legislature party meeting late on Wednesday, senior BJP leader Ravishankar Prasad announced. She later met Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena and staked claim to form the government. Only authorised people will be allowed near the venue and a proper traffic plan has been chalked out, the police said.
Around 50,000 people, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, his Cabinet colleagues and chief ministers of National Democratic Alliance-governed states, among others, are expected to attend the ceremony.
The police said commandos, quick reaction teams, PCR vans, and SWAT teams had been deployed at strategic locations while snipers were positioned at high-rise buildings nearby. Every nook and cranny are being monitored through AI-based facial recognition CCTV cameras, they added.
Who All Attended Swearing-In Ceremony?
The ceremony was attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Amit Shah and top BJP leaders, including chief ministers from BJP-governed states. For the oath-taking ceremony, the saffron party has also invited around 30,000 guests, including key RSS leaders and spiritual Dharm Gurus. Industrialists, celebrities, Laddli Bahanas, auto drivers, and farmers from Delhi are also likely to attend the program.
