On Tuesday, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Chief Arvind Kejriwal accused the Election Commission of India (ECI) and the Delhi Police of favoring the BJP, alleging that their actions encourage misconduct against AAP while shielding the ruling party.
His remarks followed a police case filed against Delhi Chief Minister Atishi over an alleged violation of the Model Code of Conduct (MCC).
Kejriwal accused the ECI and Delhi Police of colluding to disrupt the electoral process and favor the BJP, alleging that their focus is on shielding the BJP, indulging in hooliganism, and distributing liquor and money.
Taking to X, Kejriwal posted, “In response to a complaint about the growing hooliganism, the Election Commission has filed a police case against the Chief Minister of Delhi. So now, the official stance of the Delhi Police and the Election Commission is – The ‘work’ of the Delhi Police and the Election Commission is to engage in hooliganism against the Aam Aadmi Party, provide protection to the BJP’s hooliganism, and distribute liquor, money, and goods.”
“If anyone tries to stop them from doing this ‘work,’ a case will filed against that person for obstructing the ‘work’ of the police and the Election Commission,” the post further added.
CM Atishi also reacted strongly, questioning the ECI’s impartiality. She pointed out that officials took no action against BJP candidate Ramesh Bidhuri’s family despite allegations of MCC violations.
Taking to X, the Delhi CM posted, “The Election Commission is also amazing! Ramesh Bidhuri ji’s family members are openly violating the code of conduct. No action has taken against them. I filed a complaint and called the police and Election Commission, and they filed a case against me! Rajiv Kumar ji: How much will you ruin the electoral process.”
The DCP South East Delhi stated on X that AAP candidate Atishi, accompanied by 50-70 supporters and 10 vehicles, violated the MCC on Tuesday.
“On 4/2/25 at 12:30 am, AAP candidate from Kalkaji (AC-51) with 50-70 people & 10 vehicles was found at Fateh Singh Marg. Police instructed them to vacate due to MCC.On complaint by FST, a case u/s 223 BNS & 126 RP Act is regtd at PS Govindpuri,” noted the DCP.
In another post on X, the DCP South East Delhi reported that AAP members Ashmit and Sagar Mehta obstructed and assaulted a Head Constable.
“On 04/02/25, at 00:59 hrs, a gathering reported at Baba Fateh Singh Marg, Govindpuri. HC Kaushal Pal responded & began videography. AAP members Ashmit & Sagar Mehta obstructed & assaulted him,” the post added.
Additionally, the DCP asserted, “FIR No. 106/25 is registered u/s 221/132/121(1)/3(5) BNS at 0S Govindpuri for causing obstruction in discharge of public duty & assault while on duty. Further investigation is in progress.”
