Ritik Raj
Kejriwal failed to get any relief from the Supreme Court in the money laundering case.
The Supreme Court stated on Tuesday that it does not want Kejriwal to perform official duties if released on interim bail.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader was arrested on March 21 and is currently lodged in Tihar Jail under judicial custody.
But what if Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has to give up his post?
Here are three possible faces who could be the Delhi Chief Minister.
Arvind Kejriwal's wife, Sunita Kejriwal: She is a potential candidate for Delhi chief minister. She was frequently spotted alongside her husband during the Indian Against Corruption movement and the early days of the Aam Aadmi Party.
Atishi Marlena: She is regarded as Arvind Kejriwal's close aide and holds the most portfolios in the Delhi government, including education, finance, PWD, revenue, and services.
Saurabh Bharadwaj: He is a well-known face of the party and a prominent member of the Delhi cabinet with multiple important portfolios, including health and urban development. He frequently defends the party's leaders and counterattacks the BJP.
