New Delhi: Delhi Police on Tuesday filed an FIR against Chief Minister Atishi, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) candidate from Kalkaji, for allegedly violating the Model Code of Conduct (MCC) and obstructing public servants on duty.

A police officer confirmed the FIR was lodged at the Govindpuri Police Station, with charges under various sections. "We have registered an FIR against the Kalkaji AAP candidate, and further investigation is ongoing," the officer stated.

Incident on Fateh Singh Marg

The police officer further revealed that Atishi was found at Fateh Singh Marg along with 50-70 supporters and 10 vehicles. Police instructed the group to vacate the area in accordance with MCC guidelines, but the group allegedly obstructed an officer from performing his duties.

Atishi's response

In response, Atishi took to X, accusing the Election Commission of inaction. She claimed BJP candidate Ramesh Bidhuri and his family were engaging in "hooliganism," but no action was taken against them, while a case was filed against her.
