New Delhi (PTI): AAP MLA Mukesh Ahlawat will be the new face in the Delhi Cabinet headed by Atishi, who will be sworn in as chief minister on September 21, and four ministers will be retained, the party said on Thursday.
Chief Minister-designate Atishi and her new Cabinet will take the oath of office on the same day.

Another video of Karnataka HC judge making gender-insensitive comment surfaces
In previous video, Judge was seen referring Muslim dominated area in Bengaluru as Pakistan
Bengaluru: Hours after a video of Karnataka High Court judge Justice Vedavyasachar Srishananda referring to a Muslim-majority area in West Bengaluru as "Pakistan" went viral, another video has surfaced showing the judge making a gender-insensitive remark.
In this newly surfaced video, Justice Srishananda is seen reprimanding a woman lawyer for answering a question directed at the counsel for the opposite party. The judge, in a light-hearted manner, commented that the woman seemed to know so much about the opposite party that she might even reveal the colour of his undergarments next.
The video captures the judge first questioning a male lawyer, asking, "You can’t write on a cheque just because it is empty. He will go to jail for 3 years. Do you understand that?" The male advocate responded in the affirmative, following which the judge inquired if the person in question was an income tax assessee.
Before the male lawyer could answer, the opposing counsel, a woman lawyer, replied that the individual was indeed an income tax assessee. The judge then asked her why she was responding, saying, "Wait, amma," prompting the lawyer to apologise. Justice Srishananda then added, "You know everything about him. If asked tomorrow, you will tell what colour of undergarment he wears," smiling as he made the comment, which also drew smiles from the other counsel present.
This second video has stirred further outrage on social media, with many demanding action against the judge for his inappropriate comment.
Senior Advocate Indira Jaising shared the video on her X account, calling for the Chief Justice of India to take suo motu action. "We call upon the Chief Justice of India to take suo motu action against this judge and send him for gender sensitisation training," Jaising posted.
One more video of the judge is currently viral.

Lady lawyer. Yes. He is an income tax assessee.
Judge. Wait Amma. Why are you telling? You know everything about him. Tomorrow morning you will tell which colour undergarment he wears. https://t.co/bjiPFOeaKu pic.twitter.com/FTFT4imtMG
