AAP accuses BJP MLA of facilitating admission of 10 Rohingya children in govt school
The AAP demanded a probe into the charge against the BJP that the party is caring more for Rohingyas than for India’s Dalits, minorities, and the poor.
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA from Nangloi Jat, Raghuvinder Shokeen, was sworn in as a Cabinet minister in the Delhi government on Friday.
The oath was administered by Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena during a ceremony at the Raj Niwas. Chief Minister Atishi and other Cabinet ministers were also present at the event.

He also extended his congratulations to Shokeen on this occasion.
Shokeen’s induction into the Delhi Cabinet took place on November 18, a day after Kailash Gahlot resigned from both AAP and the council of ministers.
AAP highlighted Shokeen’s rural Delhi roots and his track record as a dedicated public servant, emphasizing his background in civil engineering and extensive political experience.
The party expressed confidence in his ability to enhance the government’s outreach and governance.
A two-term MLA from the Nangloi Jat constituency, Shokeen previously served two terms as a councilor, further solidifying his reputation as an experienced leader.
