It would have been better if elections were held in Delhi now because now the new Chief Minister of the state Atishi will not do any work for the public. She will only work to prove her loyalty to Arvind Kejriwal. She will be in a dilemma all the time as to how to prove herself to be more loyal to him. She will be worried that someone else may show more loyalty than her. This will be necessary because if Aam Aadmi Party wins the elections in February next year, then whether Kejriwal makes Atishi a minister in his government again or not or whom he keeps from the current cabinet and whom he removes, the decision will be based on who displayed his loyalty publicly in a more vulgar manner.
So far Atishi has taken the lead in this matter. She did not sit on the chair in the Chief Minister’s office on which Arvind Kejriwal used to sit. She kept it vacant and sat on another chair next to it. After this, Aam Aadmi Party founder Prashant Bhushan advised her that she can keep Kejriwal’s slippers on the chair. Someone also advised to keep a blue shirt on the chair. It will not be surprising if something like this happens in the future. Anyway, after the chair drama, on Tuesday Atishi went to Kejriwal’s favorite Hanuman temple in Connaught Place and prayed to make Kejriwal the CM again. Before the leaders of her party could find a solution to the chair drama, she played the Hanuman ji trick. The competition to prove one’s loyalty will continue in the future as well.
