The Election Commission on Tuesday told Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal to provide evidence for his allegation that the Bharatiya Janata Party government in Haryana was deliberately poisoning water from the Yamuna river being supplied to Delhi.
While the poll panel did not issue a notice, it directed the former Delhi chief minister to respond with a “factual and legal matrix along with evidentiary support” by 8 pm on Wednesday to allow it to examine the matter and take appropriate action.
The Bharatiya Janata Party denied Kejriwal’s allegation, and accused him of trying to “spread fear and anarchy” among the people of Delhi ahead of Assembly elections. The Delhi Assembly polls are scheduled to take place on February 5 and the votes will be counted on February 8.
