Arvind Kejriwal, who will be sworn in as Delhi's chief minister Saturday, will hold the portfolios of home, power and finance, AAP sources said.

Kejriwal confidant Manish Sisodia, tipped to be the deputy chief minister, has been allotted the departments of urban development, public works and education.

Satyendra Jain, who was the health minister in the AAP's earlier 49-day innings, will head the same ministry.
