The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) appealed to Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena to intervene about the renaming of the official ‘CMO Delhi’ handle on X to ‘Arvind Kejriwal At Work’. The BJP alleged that AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal had misused the platform for personal purposes.
Delhi BJP president Virendra Sachdeva called on the Lieutenant Governor to request a report from the government’s IT department regarding the renaming of the ‘CMO Delhi’ handle on X. He also raised concerns about its alleged use to promote the work of former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.
In response, AAP urged the BJP to stop making baseless allegations and focus on governing Delhi. “AAP has ensured 24/7 electricity supply for Delhi, and this should not be disrupted”, the party said. The BJP regained power in Delhi following 26 years, defeating AAP.
Sachdeva accused Arvind Kejriwal of becoming a ‘digital looter’ as soon as his corrupt government collapsed. He condemned Kejriwal for allegedly renaming the official CMO handle, which was created using public funds, for personal use.
Demanding that the LG halt the alleged misuse of the handle by Kejriwal, Sachdeva highlighted that it had around 1 million followers. He said, “By orchestrating this digital heist, Arvind Kejriwal not only misused government resources but also compromised people’s private information, and he must be held legally accountable for this”.
Newly-elected BJP MLA Vijender Gupta said the truth about Kejriwal was now coming to light. Gupta said in a press release, “Kejriwal tried in vain to conceal his failures by removing old videos of assembly sessions and government programs from the official Delhi government YouTube channel”.
