"The name of the new CM will be announced at 12 noon today after the legislative party meeting," a party functionary said.
During the Political Affairs Committee (PAC) meeting at Kejriwal’s residence, the CM held one-on-one talks with senior leaders, taking their individual feedback on the next chief minister, party leader and cabinet minister Saurabh Bhardwaj said.
