While most of the women have masters degrees to their credit, the new legislature will also have its share of matriculates and those who haven't even managed that. The balance will hopefully be maintained by professionals including doctors, lecturers and lawyers.

With an average age of 45 years, this team looks like a mature-yet-not-too-old legislature. This will hopefully mean that Delhiites will hear less about the stormy Assembly sessions and see more business being done during these meetings.

Actual business, however, will take a while to take-off, considering the fact that a majority of the members of this Assembly are first-timers. The first few sessions are expected to be more of a learning experience than anything else.

Interestingly, more than half of the first-timers this time round come from a business background. The agricultural community also finds due representation in Congress MLAs Ashok Singh, Tek Chand Sharma and Kanwal Singh Yadav from R K Puram, Saket and Najafgarh respectively.

With former Congress MLA from Sultanpur Majra, Jai Kishen, abdicating his seat in favour of his ``under matriculate'' wife Susheela Devi, Delhi can look forward to its own political couple on the lines of the Bihar Chief Minister and her husband. Making no bones about being the boss, Jai Kishen admitted candidly: ``She is a simple village girl with very few educational qualifications. She has studied till class 8 and can read and write a little in Hindi. But there is nothing to worry about as I am her headmaster''.

For colour and glamour, the otherwise staid Assembly will have to rely largely on Supreme Court advocate Kiran Choudhary and former news reader on Doordarshan Anjali Rai. With the right proportion of business and brains, glamour and farmers, Delhiites can look forward to a fairly balanced, yet interesting leadership.
