Bharatiya Janata Party leader Gaurav Bhatia on Tuesday launched a scathing attack on the Aam Aadmi Party over a video posted on social media platform X in which children claimed to support AAP for the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections. He called it a violation of the Juvenile Justice Act 2015 and the guidelines of the Election Commission of India. He said that AAP has used children for dirty politics.
BJP leader Gaurav Bhatia said, “If anyone has learned to use the children of Delhi for dirty politics, it is Arvind Kejriwal and Chief Minister Atishi Marlena. Arvind Kejriwal and Atishi Marlena have pushed our innocent children into politics by uploading their videos. This is a violation of the Juvenile Justice Act 2015 and secondly, the guidelines of the Election Commission of India state that there should not be statements of children, there should not be their presence, there should not be any such activities… This ‘X’ post should be removed immediately. Should be removed but Arvind Kejriwal still has not removed this post…”

It is noteworthy that on December 29, Chief Minister Atishi had posted a video on X. The video showed children chanting “Abki baar Kejriwal”, which was later reposted by former Delhi chief minister and AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal. Meanwhile, the Delhi unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party launched a fierce attack against the current Aam Aadmi Party government in Delhi and put up posters outside the BJP Delhi tenure, targeting the 10-year rule of AAP.
