Arvind Kejriwal gets notice from Delhi Police over AAP's poaching claim
New Delhi/IBNS: Days after Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal alleged that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) was attempting to "buy" seven Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLAs to destabilise his government, the Delhi Police Crime Branch landed at the Chief Minister's residence to serve him a notice in the case, media reports said.
Kejriwal had alleged that the BJP made an offer of Rs. 25 crore each to buy out seven of his MLAs.
The BJP had filed a police complaint in the matter. The Delhi Police then reported the matter to the Union Home Ministry.
Unable to win elections in Delhi, the BJP is hatching "dirty conspiracies" to topple Arvind Kejriwal's government, the AAP had alleged.
Kejriwal is also facing heat from the Enforcement Directorate, the central agency investigating the alleged corruption in the Delhi liquor policy case.
He has been summoned five times and has skipped them all, claiming that the summons were illegal.
