Delhi Election 2025: Will AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal face a ban on campaigning over his Yamuna ‘poisoning’ remarks?

Live Mint  

Delhi Elections 2025: Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal is likely to face a ban on campaigning in the Delhi Assembly Elections 2025 over his remarks blaming the Haryana government for intentionally poisoning the Yamuna River, which supplies water to the national capital. The Election Commission's action is expected to come after the Bharatiya Janata Party approached the poll panel, demanding that the former chief minister be barred from campaigning for his now-controversial remarks ahead of the Delhi Election 2025. In first response to the poll panel, Kejriwal said he has not ‘violated any law.’ In his second response before meeting the poll panel officials, Kejriwal said that it was the BJP's political conspiracy to force half of Delhi to thirst because of “poisonous” water having high ammonia to defame the AAP during the Delhi Assembly elections. The poll panel said that it gave a ‘patient’ hearing to AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal at very short notice and also received his reply to the panel's letter seeking his response to the Yamuna ‘poisoning’ controversy.
