NEW DELHI: Bhartiya Janata Party’s (BJP) Delhi unit on Wednesday sent a defamation notice to Delhi minister Atishi and demanded a public apology for her claim that the saffron party approached her through a “very close” person to join it.
Delhi BJP chief Virendra Sachdeva, while addressing a press conference, said a defamation notice has been sent to Atishi.
“Atishi failed to provide evidence of who approached her, how and when. The AAP is undergoing a crisis in Delhi, which is why they are making such baseless allegations out of frustration. But we will not let her get away with this,” he said.
This came after Atishi on Tuesday alleged that she was offered to join BJP “to safeguard her political career” and threatened with arrest if she refused.
The Delhi finance minister claimed she was conveyed the purported offer of BJP by a close associate. “I was told to either join BJP to save and extend my political career or I would be arrested by ED within a month,” Atishi alleged.
