Atishi kept the chair used by AAP convenor and her predecessor Arvind Kejriwal empty in her office «waiting for him» and was dubbed as a «temporary CM» by some. On Saturday, as the Delhi Assembly poll results trickled in and AAP's big guns including Kejriwal lost one by one, Atishi was among the few party leaders who held their own and will now raise the party's voice in the BJP-majority assembly.

Atishi retained Kalkaji seat, defeating her BJP rival and former MP Ramesh Bidhuri by a margin of 3,521 seats. It was a tough fight with Bidhuri leading in the initial rounds of counting.
The election campaign for Kalkaji saw a series of bitter exchanges between the two. Bidhuri's remarks targeting Atishi over her decision to change her surname from «Marlena» to «Singh» stirred a controversy.
While responding to Bidhuri, Atishi broke down at a press conference and accused him of seeking votes by «abusing» her elderly father.
The controversy seems to have worked in her favour.
