One of India’s main opposition figures and New Delhi’s chief minister says he will resign from office, two days after he was granted bail in a bribery case.

The ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) party had initially decided that only Atishi would be sworn in, however, it was later determined that her council of ministers would also take the oath.

When Atishi takes oath as Delhi Chief Minister on September 21, she will become only the third woman in history to achieve this milestone, following Sushma Swaraj and Sheila Dikshit. Her rise is critical for AAP as they prepare for upcoming elections and fast-track pending policies.
