Vexed CM says get rid of phansi-ghar signage
The Morning Standard
|August 07, 2025
THE 'phansi-ghar' that is not in the Delhi Assembly caused acrimonious exchanges and the marshalling out of former CM Atishi from the House on Wednesday, even as Chief Minister Rekha Gupta requested the Speaker to remove the false signage at the heart of the ruckus and blamed AAP convenor Arvind Kejriwal for creating the misleading narrative.
LoP Atishi and other AAP MLAs were marshalled out of the Assembly following a heated exchange with BJP members over the authenticity of a so-called British-era "phansi-ghar" (execution room) on the House premises.
Speaker Vijender Gupta said the structure, renovated and inaugurated in 2022 by then CM Arvind Kejriwal, was a "tiffin room" and not a site of colonial executions.
