The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) held a demonstration outside Chief Minister Atishi's residence, demanding the tabling of the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) report in the Delhi Legislative Assembly. This protest, led by BJP MLA and Leader of Opposition Vijender Gupta, comes amidst accusations of corruption against former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and the ruling AAP government.
Gupta demanded an immediate assembly session to discuss the pending CAG reports. The BJP's statement vows continued pressure on the government to present these reports, underlining their importance for constitutional adherence. The party is prepared to escalate the matter to court if necessary.
Responding to the allegations, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) dismissed the BJP's actions as desperate theatrics. AAP suggests the BJP is seeking media attention, despite having no substantial issues to raise. The party highlighted court rulings in their favor, indicating BJP's tactics as misguided.
