Live updates on Arvind Kejriwal’s resignation: According to Arvind Kejriwal, he won’t take office again as chief minister until his party wins a majority in the next state elections.
Arvind Kejriwal would have surpassed several acting greats if he had been in motion pictures by now and won multiple Oscars. It’s unclear if he will win another Oscar after giving yet another outstanding performance in front of the cameras. In his most recent part, he plays a martyr who is imprisoned for a crime he claims he did not commit and is victimized by a strong system. He has now stood in front of the people, reinforcing his heroic persona and believing that, as the hero, he will come out on top. Kejriwal, too, appears to be forgetting that politics is not a movie.
Today, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is expected to step down and designate his successor. The AAP president, who was given bail in the Delhi liquor police case on Friday, has declared that he won’t take back office until his party wins a second term in the next state elections. The Chief Minister had declared, “I will not sit on that chair until the people announce their verdict.” At about noon, the AAP will reveal who would succeed him.
With Arvind Kejriwal declaring that he will step down as Delhi Chief Minister and not take office again until the people rule on the corruption charges against him, the key question now is who inside the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) will hold the highest position. See this article for information on the five leaders who qualify.
Kejriwal ought to have quit upon his arrest.
It’s true that if a chief minister is convicted, the Constitution does not require him to step down. Nonetheless, the treaty stipulates that a chief minister must step down if they face arrest. Hemant Soren, Jayalalitha, and Lalu Prasad Yadav all took the same action. Except for Lalu, they regained control after being released from prison. Although Kejriwal’s advisers and fans may have a different opinion, the public does not enjoy that he departed with tradition.

Over the past five months, Delhi has experienced an unusual circumstance. Its chief minister was incarcerated. He was unable to function. He was unable to perform his tasks. He didn’t quit, though. Although there was a constitutional breach, the president’s rule was not enforced by the federal government. Kejriwal now wishes to resign in order to cleanse himself of that transgression.
When the Enforcement Directorate (ED) first served him with a notice to appear before the agency for an investigation, he would have dared the ED and other central agencies if he was the same Kejriwal that the world had seen in 2011 as the daring warrior against corruption. He would have challenged the ED to arrest him on that same day, saying he was not afraid of being arrested or of going to jail because he had committed no crimes. He lost the perception war when he began making excuses and refused to appear before ED.
How Kejriwal Will Be Judged by Others.
The dramatic resigning of Kejriwal is reminiscent of the ‘lost and found’ formula movies from the 1970s and 1980s. He has to be reminded that success is no longer guaranteed by such formulas and that times have changed. The preferences and goals of viewers have changed in a time influenced by social media and artificial intelligence. Today, a moment exists in the globe. Similar mistakes were made by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the 2024 parliamentary elections, and the outcome was unsuccessful. Kejriwal’s theatricals in Delhi are also unlikely to work this time. Delhi’s citizens will evaluate and cast their votes based on how well his government performs. He might take back office if they feel he did a good job serving them as Chief Minister. If the general opinion is different, he can have trouble.
His public image has suffered as a result of his promise to step down and name a new chief minister, which is seen as a show of weakness. If he was going to step down, he ought to have done so when the ED was about to arrest him. He could have called a conference of the legislature party and named a new leader to assume control of the nation’s capital, much like Hemant Soren did. Rather, he said that he would rule from behind bars. Both the text and the spirit of the Constitution have been manipulated by Kejriwal. He failed to remember that the Constitution is a living, breathing thing. Over time, customs and traditions that are not expressly stated in the Constitution have also served as a guidance.
