The ongoing political drama over Delhi Chief Minister's residence took a new turn on Wednesday as senior leaders from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of spreading false propaganda and obstructing their efforts to unveil the truth. AAP leaders Sanjay Singh and Saurabh Bharadwaj attempted to visit both the CM's residence and Prime Minister Narendra Modi's residence, calling it a "Rajmahal," but were blocked by police, sparking a war of words between the two parties.
The BJP countered by leading journalists to Chief Minister Atishi's existing official residence at AB 17 Mathura Road, raising questions about her request for an additional government bungalow.
Sanjay Singh and Saurabh Bharadwaj, accompanied by media representatives, had planned the visit to expose what they called the BJP's lies about the CM's residence. The BJP had claimed that Kejriwal's residence contained luxuries such as a swimming pool, golden toilets, and a mini-bar, claims that AAP leaders have repeatedly denied.
When AAP MP Sanjay Singh and Delhi minister Saurabh Bharadwaj reached the bungalow with media persons, police stopped them, citing a law and order situation. Singh was seen telling a senior officer Why police were stopping them. He also said stopping them amounted to a breach of privilege of an MP and a Cabinet minister.
