Aam Aadmi Party's founder-leader Arvind Kejriwal will become the chief minister of Delhi, a party member said here Saturday.

AAP leader Manish Sisodia said that Kejriwal, under whom the party won 28 seats in the 70-member Delhi assembly, "will be the chief minister".

"We fought the elections under his leadership and it is the opinion of all the 28 MLAs that he (Kejriwal) will be chief minister (of Delhi)," said Sisodia.

Sisodia spoke of Kejriwal becoming the chief minister after the AAP announced it will form the government following a referendum that it conducted in Delhi.
