'Grave disrespect to an elected woman CM': AAP shares pics of Atishi working amid packed cartons

A day after Delhi Chief Minister Atishi’s office alleged that she was evicted from her 6, Flagstaff Road bungalow, the Aam Aadmi Party on Thursday shared photos of her working amid packed cartons of her belongings.

AAP leader Sanjay Singh posted the images on X, saying the BJP cannot take away Atishi's commitment to work for the people of Delhi.

Singh accused the saffron party of "throwing away" a woman chief minister's belongings from her "residence" during the ongoing Navratri festival.

Addressing a press conference, Singh reiterated the party’s allegations that the BJP was trying to "forcibly capture" the "CM's residence".

"This is a grave disrespect to an elected woman chief minister and the people of Delhi. A party that has been out of power in Delhi for 27 years is trying to capture the chief minister's house forcibly," he said.

On Tuesday, the chief minister’s office alleged that Atishi was evicted from her official residence in Civil Lines under the directions of Lt Governor V.K. Saxena.

"For the first time in the history of the country, the Chief Minister's residence was vacated. At the behest of the BJP, the Lt Governor forcibly removed Chief Minister Atishi's belongings from the Chief Minister residence," the CMO said in a post.

Atishi, who was sworn in as the chief minister last month, moved her belongings to the 6, Flagstaff Road residence on Monday. The bungalow was previously occupied for over nine years by Arvind Kejriwal who vacated it after resigning as the chief minister.

The BJP, however, accused Atishi of illegally occupying the bungalow even as she had been allotted the AB-17 bungalow on Mathura Road.
