A criminal complaint was filed against Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and his AAP colleague Atishi before a court here on Monday, accusing them of defaming the BJP and its members.

The complaint alleged that the two Aam Aadmi Party leaders made “false, fabricated, and manipulated statements”, accusing the BJP of trying to buy and poach AAP MLAs and topple the state government, “with a malafide intention to lower BJP’s and its workers’ reputation in general public”.
“of malicious/ scandalous statements, you and your colleagues defame BJP and its members and try to gain political mileage by use of platform of press conferences to make such false statements knowing fully well that all social media platforms would carry such news as you are not only an MLA but a Minister in the govt of NCT of Delhi,” the complaint alleged.
