Kejriwal Recommended Razing of 9 Temples: L-G Secretariat

The documents claim that Kejriwal, along with then Home Minister Manish Sisodia, approved these demolitions on February 8, 2023, based on recommendations from the Religious Committee.

According to the LG Secretariat, seven of the temples targeted for demolition were located in the Karawal Nagar area, while the other two were in New Usmanpur.

The allegations were made in response to accusations from the AAP-led government that the Lieutenant Governor's office was overseeing demolitions of Hindu temples.
