After Kejriwal, Delhi Police at Atishi's Residence Over 'MLA Poaching' Remarks
Delhi Minister Atishi directed her camp office to receive the notice

A team of the Delhi Police Crime Branch arrived at the Delhi Minister of Education, PWD, Culture and Tourism, Atishi Marlena’s house over AAP’s MLA poaching claim case. According to AAP sources, the minister was not present at her residence. She, however, directed her camp office to receive the notice.

“The team will go again to serve notice to Atishi. This morning she was not present at her residence,” a senior officer of the Delhi Police Crime Branch was quoted by PTI as saying.

‘We Pity Crime Branch People…’: Atishi

Speaking about the notice served to her by the Delhi Police Crime branch earlier today, AAP leader Atishi said, “They gave notice to CM Kejriwal and me. This notice is neither FIR nor summons. No IPC, CRPC, and PMLA sections are mentioned in it.”

The Delhi further stated that police said the “notice will be handed over to me only”. “We pity the Crime Branch people,” she added.

The development comes after a team of the Delhi Police crime branch visited Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s residence on Saturday morning again to serve him a notice in connection with a probe over his claim that the BJP was trying to poach AAP MLA.

On Friday evening too, Crime Branch teams visited the residences of Kejriwal and Delhi Minister Atishi.

Poaching Allegations by AAP

Last week, CM Arvind Kejriwal had alleged in an X post that the BJP offered Rs 25 crore each to seven AAP MLAs to quit the party while also threatening to topple the government in Delhi.

Atishi had also accused the BJP of launching “Operation Lotus 2.0” in Delhi.

“They had made a similar attempt to poach AAP MLAs last year by offering them money but failed,” she said at a press conference.

Following the allegations, a delegation of the Delhi BJP on January 30 met the city police chief, seeking a probe into Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s allegations.

Delhi BJP chief Virendra Sachdeva said, “We had said Kejriwal is levelling false allegations to create a sensation. The truth behind Kejriwal’s lie is about to be exposed now. He cannot lie and then run away from the probe. He will have to face the investigation.”
