BJP complains against AAP for using Bedi's image
New Delhi, Jan 27 (IBNS) The Bharatiya Janata Party on Tuesday lodged a complaint with the the Election Commission against the Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal for using BJP candidate Kiran Bedi's photographs on his party posters.
"We have lodged four complaints against Arvind Kejriwal alleging violation of model code of conduct. The EC has assured us that it will take action in the case," Delhi BJP President Satish Upadhyay told reporters.
The complaint said the AAP pasted posters on hundreds of auto-rickshaws with images of Arvind Kejriwal and BJP's chief ministerial candidate Kiran Bedi and branding them respectively 'honest' and 'opportunist.'
The EC had earlier sent a notice to Kejriwal on the basis of a complaint that he was 'abetting and promoting' electoral offence of bribery' by asking voters to accept whatever was being offered to them by the BJP and the Congress and vote for the AAP.
However, in his reply Kejriwal has denied that he had lured voters and violated the Model Code of Conduct.
