On Tuesday, January 7, Delhi Chief Minister Atishi alleged that the Bharatiya Janata Party-led Centre Government evicted her out of the official chief minister’s residence on Monday night.
News agency PTI reported CM ATishi as saying, “The schedule for Delhi elections was announced today. Last night, the BJP-led central government, for the second time in three months, threw me out of my official residence, which has been allotted to me as being the CM. They cancelled the allotment of the CM residence through a letter and snatched away the residence from an elected CM of an elected govt.”
However, responding to Atishi’s charges, BJP leader and their IT Cell Head Amit Malviya said, “Delhi Chief Minister Atishi Marlena is LYING. She was allotted SheeshMahal (Popular name for Arvind Kejriwal’s grand residence while serving as CM of Delhi) on 11-Oct-2024. She hasn’t still occupied it because she doesn’t want to offend Arvind Kejriwal. Hence, the allotment was withdrawn and two more bungalows have been offered to her, instead.”
