Sanjay Singh demands suspension of DM and SHO for impartial investigation, alleges BJP's misuse of resources during Delhi elections
New Delhi, January 14: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MP Sanjay Singh on Tuesday accused BJP candidate Parvesh Verma of violating the Model Code of Conduct (MCC) and called for the suspension of the District Magistrate (DM) and the Station House Officer (SHO) of Delhi Police to ensure a fair investigation.
Addressing the media, Singh alleged that Verma, who is contesting from the New Delhi constituency, had distributed spectacles and money, breaching the MCC.
"The Election Commission, Delhi Police, DM, and SHO are all too scared of the BJP to speak out. Despite evidence of violations, the DM and SHO claim there is no proof. The Election Commission needs to act impartially or the MCC will continue to be openly violated," Singh said.
Demands for Action
Singh urged the Election Commission to suspend the DM and SHO to pave the way for a neutral investigation.
"Parvesh Verma is responsible for violating the MCC. Both the DM and SHO must be suspended for an impartial inquiry," he added.
BJP CM Face Mystery
Singh also criticized the BJP for not announcing its chief ministerial candidate for the Delhi Assembly elections. He claimed internal conflict within the party had surfaced after speculations about Ramesh Bidhuri being the CM face.
"Who is the groom in the BJP's wedding procession? The elections are near, and the people of Delhi have no idea who the BJP's CM candidate is," Singh remarked.
ECI Inquiry
On January 9, the Election Commission of India directed the Chief Electoral Officer of Delhi to investigate AAP’s complaint against Verma. The complaint alleged MCC violations and irregularities in the electoral roll of the New Delhi Assembly Constituency.
Election Schedule
- Polling Date: February 5 (Single Phase)
- Counting of Votes: February 8
As the Delhi Assembly elections approach, the political landscape heats up with allegations and counter-allegations shaping the campaign trail.
