The accusation comes a day after the President's secretariat forwarded the assertions of Opposition BJP that Delhi was facing a constitutional crisis to the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) for "proper attention".
A memorandum of Delhi BJP MLAs submitted to President Droupadi Murmu on August 30 seeking dismissal of the AAP government in Delhi over "violations" of the Constitution has been forwarded to the MHA for "proper attention", Leader of Opposition Vijender Gupta said on Monday.
Addressing a press conference on Tuesday, Vijender Gupta said the Kejriwal government must respond to issues raised in the memorandum and alleged that the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) was playing "victim card" and "misleading" people over the issue.
Atishi said the BJP's only job is to topple the elected governments in the country through its "Operation Lotus" as happened in Maharashtra, Karnataka and Manipur.
"They also tried Operation Lotus in Delhi to topple the government by poaching the AAP MLAs, but they failed. Now, they are conspiring to impose the President's rule through the back door to topple the popular government of Arvind Kejriwal in Delhi," she alleged.
