In a controversial turn of events, senior AAP leader and Delhi minister Saurabh Bhardwaj on Thursday accused newly elected South Delhi BJP MP Ramvir Singh Bidhuri of breaching the model code of conduct during the recently concluded Lok Sabha election. Bhardwaj stated that Bidhuri met with the chief secretary, accompanied by a delegation, an act he terms as a violation of the Representation of People's Act 1951.

Despite the accusation, there was no immediate response from Bidhuri. During a press conference, Bhardwaj asserted that the meeting falls under 'corrupt practices' aimed at influencing voters, and warned that the alleged violation could result in the annulment of the election.

The AAP leader called for swift action from the Centre against the chief secretary, adding that he discovered the meeting took place on April 24 from a Facebook post by a former BJP MLA.
