Delhi: Several AAP MLAs untraceable ahead of meeting at CM Kejriwal's residence
New Delhi, August 25: Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government in Delhi is under threat as some of its MLAs are unreachable ahead of the key meeting at the Chief Minister's residence, sources said on Thursday.
AAP has claimed that the Bharatiya Janata Party has threatened and lured AAP MLAs to topple Delhi's Kejriwal-led government. This comes after AAP leader Saurabh Bharadwaj accused the Bharatiya Janata Party of offering Rs 20 crore to AAP MLAs in order to "bring down" the Kejriwal-led government in the national capital.
"BJP offered to bring down Kejriwal's government by luring AAP MLAs with Rs 20-20 crores... slogans of '50 Khokha-50 Khokha' were raised in Maharashtra Assembly, hence I would say to the BJP Band karo desh se dhokha, nahi chalega 50 khoka," Bharadwaj said on Wednesday.

The meeting, which is scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. today in the national capital, is crucial because it will likely involve major discussions about the current political situation as well as the raids by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on party leaders.
With numerous MLAs untraceable ahead of the meeting, both the AAP and the opposition parties will be monitoring to see how many MLAs attend.
Earlier on Monday, Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia alleged that he had received an offer by BJP to split AAP in what he claims was a quid pro quo as the CBI initiated a probe into Delhi's now withdrawn excise policy.
BJP, on the other hand, declined any such offer being made and attacked Kejriwal and Sisodia, saying that it is the frustration of AAP as their corruption is getting exposed.
