Aam Aadmi Party MLA Atishi will take oath as the third woman Chief Minister of Delhi on Saturday. New members of the Cabinet will also take oath with her.

Atishi, who was proposed as the CM-designate by Arvind Kejriwal, will take oath along with her council of ministers.

Arvind Kejriwal resigned as the Delhi chief minister on Tuesday, after which Atishi staked claim to form a new government in the national capital.

Political drama unfolded in Delhi after Atishi was named the Chief Minister designate following Arvind Kejriwal’s resignation. BJP sharply criticized the move, dubbing it a mere 're-designation' and questioning AAP's governance.

The party had previously announced that only Atishi would take oath, however, it was later decided that her council of ministers would also take the oath.

"Atishi will take oath as the Chief Minister of Delhi on September 21, other ministers will also take their oaths alongside her," the Aam Aadmi Party said in a statement.

Lieutenant governor Vinai Kumar Saxena on Wednesday sent the file on the appointment of the chief minister to the President for approval, proposing Saturday for the swearing-in ceremony
