Atishi, a former chief minister and leader of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), congratulated Rekha Gupta on her appointment by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) as the next chief minister of Delhi on Wednesday.While expressing her best wishes, Atishi emphasized the significance of keeping the pledges the BJP made to the Delhi populace.A congrats message Atishi expressed gratitude for the BJP's decision and hoped they would fulfill their promises. "I want to congratulate Rekha Gupta Ji from the bottom of my heart, and I hope that the BJP will fulfill all of its promises to the people of Delhi," she stated.

Women in politics: An important development Atishi discussed the importance of Rekha Gupta's appointment and drew attention to the underrepresentation of women in positions of leadership nationwide. "The representation of women in politics is a very beneficial development. Only Mamata Banerjee is still the chief minister of any Indian state, despite the country's freedom having existed for so long. For the ladies of this nation, Rekha Gupta's appointment is a source of pride. A reminder to keep your word In spite of her congrats, Atishi called on the BJP government to keep its pledges, especially to Delhi's women. Additionally, I hope that the Bharatiya Janata Party would keep its pledges to women, including paying Rs 2,500 as an honorarium to each and every woman in Delhi. This should be approved at the first cabinet meeting, and the money should be credited to Delhi women's accounts by Women's Day on March 8.
