TheFirst Kejriwal cabinet was theCouncil of Ministers infifth Delhi Legislative Assembly headed byChief MinisterArvind Kejriwal.[1]
Kejriwal was then sworn in as 7thChief Minister of Delhi on 28 December, leading theFirst Kejriwal cabinet, the youngest cabinet in Delhi ever.[6]M. S. Dhir was elected as the speaker of the legislative assembly on 3 January 2014.[7]
Amongst its first tasks, the AAP initiated a corruption response mechanism in a "durbar";[citation needed] it also retracted theFDI in multi-brand retail that the previous government had sanctioned. Kejriwal said that though this would give consumers more options it has been shown that it "leads to loss of jobs to a very large extent. There is huge unemployment in Delhi and the AAP government does not wish to increase this unemployment. Delhi is not prepared for FDI."[8] Yet he added that he was not against FDI by itself but that it needed to occur on a case-by-case basis.[9]
After 49 days, Kejriwal resigned as a chief minister following the failure of the introduction of Delhi'sJan Lokpal Bill in the assembly on 14 February 2014.President's rule was then imposed and the assembly was kept insuspended animation.[10]Fresh elections were scheduled for early 2015.
