Delhi Election 2025: Can legal cases bar Arvind Kejriwal from becoming CM if AAP wins?
Live MintWill AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal get the chief minister's post back if his party wins the 2025 assembly elections? Taking note of these conditions, Congress leader Sandeep Dikshit, who is contesting against Kejriwal from New Delhi seat in 2025 polls, said on December 23, “He can't become the CM anyways, for him, I don't think it is possible to even become an MLA…even if he takes oath as CM, he can't sign files, attend meetings, or go to the CM office, as per the Supreme Court's instructions…” Besides this, experts deemed Kejriwal's decision to resign as a move to "reclaim the moral high ground". Kejriwal eligible Delhi CM if AAP wins No law hinders a person from holding the chief minister's post until he/she is convicted of any crime. If the AAP wins the 2025 Delhi polls and wants to bring back Kejriwal to the CM post, the situation will be similar to that of TDP Andhra leader Chandrababu Naidu's skill development 'scam' case.
