New Delhi [India], November 20 (ANI): The Aam Aadmi Party on Monday filed a complaint with the Election Commission against the Bharatiya Janata Party over social media posts targeting Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.
A delegation of AAP led by party's MP Raghav Chadha today met with EC officials.
AAP MP Raghav Chadha told media, "The BJP is trying to tarnish the image of our party and Chief Arvind Kejriwal by posting ridiculous content on social media. They are trying to do character assassination. We have appealed to the Election Commission to take action against BJP. There must be some decorum even in politics. My request to the BJP would be to stop the character assassination of people. If you want to fight Kejriwal then fight in the election field. We have explained in detail in the complaint which section of the law has been violated by the BJP on social media. We are sure EC will take appropriate action."AAP filed a complaint on a November 5 video from BJP's Delhi official social media accounts mocking Arvind Kejriwal.
AAP has alleged that the BJP is violating the People Representation Act and Model code of conduct.
Also, Congress has submitted evidence in the form of CDs about the BJP's social media accounts to the Election Commission.
