Congress leader Digvijay Singh on Saturday referred to newly elected Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal as an 'activist', adding that the latter knows how to raise issues but does not have solutions for the same.

"He is an activist. An activist, of what little I know, is that they know how to raise an issue but don't have solutions. He talks of a corruption-free Delhi: if he achieves it, it will be a great achievement, but we'll have to see how he does that," said Singh.

Earlier in the day, fellow Congress leader Jai Prakash Agarwal had criticized the Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government in Delhi for not including any woman in their cabinet.

 

Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal was administered the oath of office and secrecy by Delhi's Lt. Governor Najeeb Jung earlier in the day. Meanwhile, Manish Sisodia took charge as the deputy chief minister.

In an unprecedented first for the national capital, the Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party won 67of the 70 seats on offer in the Delhi polls. With this extraordinary mandate, the AAP has become the first non-Congress and non-BJP party to rule the city.

The Congress which was in power in Delhi for 15 years failed to even open its account in the polls.
