According to the reports, BJP has appointed two senior party leaders: Ravi Shankar Prasad and Om Prakash Dhankhar as observers to pick the next Chief Ministers for Delhi. The party has organized an extravaganza event and invited all NDA chief ministers to the oath-taking ceremony slated to be held on February 20, 2025, at Ram Leela Maidan.
