Arvind Kejriwal and other AAP leaders are in trouble for allegedly misusing public funds to install large hoardings in Delhi’s Dwarka area in 2019. The complaint, originally filed in 2019, accuses Kejriwal, former AAP MLA Gulab Singh, and Dwarksa Councillor Nitika Sharma of spending taxpayer money on political advertisements in the form of large billboards. In September 2022, a metropolitan magistrate dismissed the complaint. However, the sessions court later overturned the decision and instructed the magistrate to reconsider the case. The court has set a deadline of March 18 for the police to submit a compliance report. The case is being investigated under Section 156(3) of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC), which empowers courts to order police investigations into cognisable offences. It is alleged that Kejriwal, Singh and Sharma misused public funds by installing large billboards in the DwarkA area of Delhi in the name of the AAP party in the 2019 Delhi elections. They have all denied the allegations.
