Newly elected MP from New Delhi Lok Sabha seat, Bansuri Swaraj has been made a member of the New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC). The Union Home Ministry has also issued a notification in this regard.

After being given the new responsibility by the Home Ministry, Bansuri Swaraj on Thursday took the oath of faith and allegiance to the Constitution of India as a member of the NDMC and Delhi Chief Secretary Naresh Kumar took the oath of allegiance to the post of Chairman.
Naresh Kumar has taken the additional charge by taking oath as the Chairman of NDMC. On July 3, the Union Home Ministry had appointed BJP MP Bansuri Swaraj as a member of NDMC. The new Chairman of NDMC, Naresh Kumar, is also the Chief Secretary of Delhi.
The New Delhi Municipal Corporation Council now has the following members – Chairman and Delhi Chief Secretary Naresh Kumar, New Delhi MP Bansuri Swaraj, Vice-Chairman and former Delhi BJP president Satish Upadhyay, Kuljeet Chahal, Vishakha Sailani and Girish Sachdeva.
