Delhi Police have filed an FIR against Delhi Chief Minister and AAP candidate from Kalkaji, Atishi, for allegedly breaching the Model Code of Conduct (MCC) and obstructing a public servant on duty.
The FIR was lodged at the Govindpuri Police Station, and an investigation is underway, according to a police officer.
The police stated that Atishi was found at Fateh Singh Marg along with 50-70 supporters and 10 vehicles, violating MCC guidelines. Despite instructions to vacate the area, Atishi and her supporters allegedly obstructed an officer from carrying out his duties.
In response, Atishi took to X, criticizing the Election Commission for taking no action against BJP candidate Ramesh Bidhuri and his family, who she claimed were engaging in “hooliganism” without facing consequences. Atishi posted, “Ramesh Bidhuriji’s family members are openly violating the code of conduct. No action is being taken against them. I filed a complaint and called the police and @ECISVEEP, and they filed a case against me! Rajiv Kumar ji: How much will you ruin the electoral process?”
Reacting to the FIR, AAP National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal also criticized the Election Commission, accusing it of shielding BJP’s misconduct.
In a post on X, Kejriwal said, “The Election Commission filed a police case against Delhi CM after she complained about the open hooliganism. So now this is the official stand of Delhi Police and Election Commission – The ‘job’ of the Delhi Police and the Election Commission is to themselves indulge in hooliganism against the Aam Aadmi Party, provide protection to the hooliganism of the BJP, and distribute liquor, money, and goods. If anyone stops them from doing this ‘work,’ a case will be filed against him for obstructing the ‘work’ of the police and the Election Commission,” he added.
