Arvind Kejriwal's Resignation Sparks Speculation on Next Delhi CM

• Arvind Kejriwal's resignation has left a void in Delhi's leadership, with Atishi emerging as a top contender due to her extensive responsibilities in the government.
• Former deputy CM Manish Sisodia is out of the race, despite being a natural choice, as he awaits public endorsement of his honesty.
• Atishi's rapid rise in the party is highlighted by her significant contributions and her role in key party functions, including the manifesto drafting committee.
• Speculation also surrounds Kejriwal's wife, Sunita Kejriwal, though her candidacy is being downplayed to avoid accusations of nepotism.
• Other potential candidates include Gopal Rai, a long-time party member, and health minister Saurabh Bharadwaj, with some suggesting a scheduled caste candidate like Rakhi Birla.
