Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal has raised sharp questions to RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat, asking whether the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) supports the alleged misconduct by BJP leaders in the run-up to the Delhi Assembly elections. In a letter dated December 30, Mr. Kejriwal accused BJP leaders of distributing money to buy votes and claimed large-scale deletion of Dalit and Purvanchali names from the voter list. The AAP chief emphasized that such actions undermine democracy and demanded clarity on the RSS’s stance.

Mr. Kejriwal also referred to media reports suggesting that the RSS would campaign for the BJP in the upcoming elections, which are scheduled for February. He argued that this association might lead the public to believe that the RSS condones these alleged practices. Highlighting the BJP’s actions as harmful to Indian democracy, he called on Mr. Bhagwat to take a stand and address public concerns over these allegations.

Meanwhile, the BJP has countered with accusations against the AAP, alleging that Mr. Kejriwal’s party is aiding illegal Rohingya and Bangladeshi immigrants by providing them with documents to create a voter base. With both parties trading allegations, the political atmosphere in Delhi has intensified as the city prepares for the critical election to its 70-member Assembly.
