Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani was sworn in on Thursday at the historic former City Hall subway station, becoming New York's first Muslim and youngest mayor.⁣
⁣
The swearing-in was led by New York Attorney General Letitia James, with Mamdani taking his oath by placing his hand on the Quran, moments after the New Year countdown struck midnight. ⁣
⁣
Mamdani, a democratic socialist and New York's first Muslim mayor, won just over 50 per cent of the vote after campaigning on sweeping social reforms, including free bus travel, affordable childcare, city-run grocery stores and universal Wi-Fi, promising a ‘new era’ for New York. ⁣
