With elections for the key Delhi Municipal Corporation (MCD) only weeks away, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) have upped the ante against each other. In latest showdown, the saffron party on Monday shared a poster on Twitter that contains a caricature of AAP boss and Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal wearing multiple feathers around his head. “Feathers of P’AAP’,” the BJP tweeted with the caption “AAP looting Delhi”.
This latest salvo comes after BJP leader Ramvir Singh Bidhuri held a press conference earlier in the day, and claimed that the ruling AAP regime in the national capital is not only involved in the liquor policy scam but also in one pertaining to the Delhi Jal Board (DJB).
“The Delhi Jal Board scam happened when Arvind Kejriwal was the chairman of it. I want to request LG sir (Delhi lieutenant governor VK Saxena) to register [an] FIR against Kejriwal and seal the accounts,” Bidhuri said at the conference.
He further claimed that the DJB scam is actually of ₹200 crore, and not ₹20 crore. “The scam happened when Kejriwal was the chairman of DJB, and it could not have taken place without his knowledge…He was a part of it and he allowed it to happen,” the BJP leader said at the briefing.
