Delhi’s Rouse Avenue Court has ordered to register an FIR against former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in the case of misuse of government money. Kejriwal is accused of misusing public money in putting up big hoardings for publicity. Hearing the petition demanding FIR against Kejriwal and two other leaders Gulab Singh and Nitika Sharma, the court has directed Delhi Police to register a case. The court has also sought a status report of the case from the police by March 18. Petition filed in court 6 years ago
A petition was filed in a Delhi court in 2019. It alleged that Arvind Kejriwal, former Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Gulab Singh and Dwarka councilor Nitika Sharma have misused public money by putting up big hoardings across the area. Then the lower court dismissed the petition and refused to allow FIR. In January 2024, the Directorate of Information and Publicity also asked AAP to return Rs 163.62 crore with interest for misusing public money for political advertisements.

Center’s order – Renovation in Kejriwal’s bungalow will be investigated Earlier, the central government had ordered an inquiry into the renovation in the bungalow of former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal at 6 Flag Staff Road.

The report said that many rules were broken in the construction of the bungalow built in 40 thousand square yards (8 acres). Before the Delhi Assembly elections, the BJP had alleged that more than Rs 45 crore was spent on the renovation of the bungalow. The BJP has named the bungalow as Kejriwal’s Sheeshmahal. Kejriwal lived here from 2015 to 2024.

This process should be canceled. The BJP Chief Minister will not live in this bungalow after the oath.
