Atishi was sworn in as Delhi's Chief Minister on Saturday, sparking a mix of hope and scepticism among residents of her home constituency, Kalkaji. While many locals express hope that her leadership will finally address the persistent issues plaguing the area, others worry that the transition in political power may yield little more than empty promises.
Kalkaji is a diverse constituency that encompasses middle-class neighbourhoods, upper-middle-class areas, slums, and unauthorised colonies. Atishi has represented this region since her electoral victory in 2020, and her recent elevation to Chief Minister has led to heightened expectations among constituents. Long time resident of Govindpuri, Harpreet Singh characterised Atishi's ascension as a "new hope" for the area, stating, "Atishi has been a grassroots politician, hence her becoming CM will see the betterment of Kalkaji."
