**New Delhi, [Date]:** Delhi’s newly appointed Minister, Parvesh Verma, took his oath today along with Chief Minister Rekha Gupta and other cabinet colleagues in a ceremony attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and several other dignitaries. Verma, who defeated Arvind Kejriwal in the recent New Delhi constituency election, acknowledged the significant challenges facing the city but expressed confidence in overcoming them with the support of the Prime Minister and the central government.
Speaking to the media after the ceremony, Verma highlighted the lack of progress in Delhi over the past few years. He emphasized the BJP’s commitment to fulfilling its election promises to the people of Delhi and implementing the vision of Prime Minister Modi. He also received a congratulatory message from PM Modi, expressing gratitude for the trust shown in him.
Verma’s elevation is considered a significant boost to his position within the BJP, evident from the enthusiastic welcome he received from supporters at the Ramlila Maidan ceremony.

Nadda, and leaders from allied parties like the JD(U) and TDP. Thousands of BJP workers and supporters also participated.
