Why has BJP picked Rekha Gupta as Delhi CM over 'giant-killer' Parvesh Verma?

BJP's strategy to consolidate female vote is a reason behind the party choosing Rekha Gupta as Delhi CM, instead of 'giant-killer' Parvesh Verma who defeated Arvind Kejriwal in Delhi polls. Her Vaishya-Baniya identity is another reason, as it makes up the "backbone" of BJP Delhi unit, Hindustan Times reported. Her ties to RSS' student wing ABVP is another reason.
