====Background====
{| class="wikitable sortable"
In the [[2013 Delhi Legislative Assembly election|2013 Delhi state elections]], the [[Bharatiya Janata Party]] (along with its pre-poll ally [[Shiromani Akali Dal]]) emerged as the single-largest party, winning 32 out of the 70 seats. However they fell short of an outright majority and therefore were unable to form the government. This led the then [[Lieutenant Governor of Delhi]] [[Najeeb Jung]] to invite the [[Aam Aadmi Party]], the second largest party after the BJP, to form the government.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.tribuneindia.com/2013/20131213/main2.htm | title=BJP rejects offer to form govt | work=[[The Tribune (Chandigarh)|The Tribune]] | access-date=12 December 2013 |archive-date=6 October 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141006173234/http://www.tribuneindia.com/2013/20131213/main2.htm}}</ref> On 28 December 2013, AAP formed the state government after taking outside support from the [[Indian National Congress]].<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.livemint.com/Multimedia/xrmE8Cued0YVd5rVRYzvIO/Arvind-Kejriwal-of-Aam-Admi-Party-to-be-Delhis-new-chief-mi.html|title=Arvind Kejriwal of Aam Admi Party to be Delhi's new chief minister|work=Livemint|date=23 December 2013|access-date=30 November 2014}}</ref> AAP's leader [[Arvind Kejriwal]], who defeated the incumbent chief minister [[Sheila Dikshit]], became the 7th chief minister of Delhi. However, on 14 February 2014 (after 49 days of rule), Arvind Kejriwal resigned from his post citing the reason as his government's inability to table the [[Jan Lokpal Bill]] in Delhi Assembly for discussion due to stiff opposition from other political parties in the house.
