Aakhir Tak – In Depth

The Car Attack and the Allegations

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was allegedly attacked by BJP goons during a campaign event in New Delhi. Atishi, a prominent AAP leader, has accused BJP of orchestrating this attack, releasing photos of two individuals – Shanky and Rohit Tyagi. Atishi’s press conference revealed that Shanky is a Vice President of the BJP, closely allied with Parvesh Verma, the BJP’s candidate from New Delhi. According to Atishi, Shanky has been involved in various criminal activities, including charges of attempted murder, robbery, and assault.

Shanky’s Criminal History

Atishi presented Shanky, also known as Rahul, as a hard-core criminal with a criminal record. She disclosed that Shanky faces multiple charges, some carrying a potential seven-year sentence. He is accused of involvement in violent crimes such as robbery and attempted murder, with ongoing investigations against him in various police stations in Delhi. According to Atishi, he has frequently been seen in the company of Parvesh Verma and has been involved in putting up political posters supporting him.

Rohit Tyagi’s Involvement

In addition to Shanky, Atishi named Rohit Tyagi as another individual involved in the incident. Tyagi, who has a criminal history linked to theft and attempted murder, has also been seen collaborating with Parvesh Verma during campaigns. Atishi pointed to his social media activity, which shows him attending events and being present with Verma in several instances.

BJP’s Counterattack

The BJP responded sharply to Atishi’s allegations. Parvesh Verma, BJP’s candidate, claimed that three youths were hit by Kejriwal’s vehicle. According to Verma, the youths were local residents who tried to speak with Kejriwal about job issues. Verma presented videos showing that the youths were allegedly struck by Kejriwal’s car. He further accused Kejriwal of attempting to run over the youths when they questioned him.

The Impending Election

The incident has heightened tensions ahead of Delhi’s Assembly elections, set for February 5. The AAP, led by Kejriwal, faces strong opposition from the BJP, which has been out of power in Delhi since 1998. The competition is expected to intensify, with accusations and counter-accusations flowing between the parties.
