The FIR was followed after a complaint that was initially made in the Govindpuri Police Station by the returning officer against CM Atishi, alleging the use of a government vehicle for political purposes on January 7. Following a detailed investigation, the police registered the FIR against a PWD official for using a government vehicle for election campaigning.
Criticising this move, AAP National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal posted on X, “Their leaders openly distribute money, sarees, blankets, gold chains etc, get fake votes made, yet not even an FIR is registered. But an FIR was immediately registered against Chief Minister Atishi ji. AAP is fighting against the entire system. This rotten system has to be changed and cleaned together with the people. Both BJP and Congress are part of the same rotten system”.
