Operation Lotus 2.0 | 'AAP MLAs threatened, offered Rs 25 crore': Kejriwal's big allegations against BJP

Operation Lotus 2.0: The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of attempting to topple the elected Delhi government through a campaign known as "Operation Lotus 2.0". AAP chief and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has claimed that some of his party's MLAs were offered bribes to leave the party and weaken his government.

Taking to X, Kejriwal wrote, "Recently, they (BJP) have contacted our 7 MLAs from Delhi and said-We will arrest Kejriwal after a few days. After that, we will break the MLAs. Talks have been held with 21 MLAs. Talking to others as well. After that, we will topple the Aam Aadmi Party government in Delhi. You also come, we will give you Rs 25 crore and get you to contest the elections on BJP ticket."

"Although they claim that they have contacted 21 MLAs, but as per our information, they have contacted only 7 MLAs so far and all of them have refused," he added.

The Delhi Chief Minister stated that this means, "I am not being arrested to investigate any liquor scam, but they are conspiring to topple the Aam Aadmi Party government in Delhi."

"In the last nine years, they have hatched many conspiracies to topple our government. But they did not have any success. God and the people always supported us. All our MLAs are also strongly united. This time also, these people will fail in their nefarious intentions," the Delhi CM said.

The Delhi Chief Minister also stated in his post that the BJP knows how much work the AAP government has done for the people of Delhi, and that despite all of the obstacles erected by the BJP, the AAP government in Delhi has accomplished so much.

"The people of Delhi love 'AAP' immensely. Therefore, it is not in their power to defeat AAP in the elections. So they want to topple the government by making arrests on the pretext of a fake liquor scam," the post read.
