The Third Kejriwal cabinet is the Council of Ministers in Delhi Legislative Assembly headed by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.[3][4]

It was formed after the results of the 2020 Delhi Legislative Assembly election were declared.

History[edit]

In August 2022 a floor majority test was conducted in the Delhi Assembly by the Delhi Chief Minister, to prove that the AAP government enjoyed the majority and BJP's Operation Lotus had failed to poach AAP MLAs.[5][6]
