The family members and supporters of various Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders on Saturday extended their best wishes to party chief Arvind Kejriwal and his six-member Cabinet, who will take oath at the Ramlila Maidan today.
"A historic day, I am confident that Arvind and his team will serve the people well, fulfill all the promises," said AAP leader Rahul Mehra.
Meanwhile, Delhi Minister designate Jitendra Tomar's father expressed confidence that his son would fulfill all his responsibilities.
"It is a proud moment for us. We all family members are very happy that he has been elected. He will certainly fulfill all his responsibilities and surely serve the public with full dedication," said Tomar's father.
Manish Sisodia's wife Seema identified electricity, water, admissions of children and women security as the key issues for the new government.
"Electricity, water, admissions of children and women security are key issues. It may take some time but all promises will be fulfilled," Seema told ANI ahead of her husband's swearing-in ceremony.
Kejriwal and his cabinet ministers will be administered the oath of office and secrecy by Delhi's Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung at the Ramlila Ground at 12 noon.
Kejriwal is expected to keep the key portfolios of Home, Power and Finance with himself, while giving Education, PWD and Urban Development to his confidante Manish Sisodia, who will also be the Deputy Chief Minister.
