ECI hounding me over Yamuna row: Kejriwal
Hindustan Times Delhi
|February 01, 2025
If CEC doesn't take action against Haryana govt... you will be normalising ghastly actions in electoral politics. ARVIND KEJRIWAL, AAP chief
NEW DELHI: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Friday alleged he was being "hounded" by the top leadership of the Election Commission of India (ECI) over a complaint lodged by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) against him for his remarks on "poisoning" of the Yamuna.
Kejriwal, who visited the ECI office on Friday morning to submit his response, said that his remarks were only in direct reference to the high level of ammonia contamination in the raw water being supplied from Haryana to Delhi and that any other inference from his statement was incorrect.
