Atishi arrives at official CM residence

  • | Tuesday | 8th October, 2024

Chief Minister  Atishi on Monday held a meeting with the staff member as she arrived at the official residence at 6, Flagstaff Road bungalow,  days after her predecessor Arvind Kejriwal vacated it and moved to a new address in Lutyens Delhi. Earlier, the AAP shared a video of her belongings being shifted in a tempo to the Flagstaff Road bungalow. The shifting of the chief ministers personal effects and other belongings is underway, they said. The video was shared in response to the BJP leader and Leader of Opposition in Delhi Assembly Vijendra Gupta and Delhi BJP president Virendra Sachdeva , who shared a letter written by the PWD to the Special Secretary of the Chief Ministers Office Pravesh  Ranjan Jha, stating that it is surprising that Arvind Kejriwal never vacated the infamous Sheesh Mahal bungalow at 6 Flagstaff Road, which has become a symbol of his corruption. Atishi was earlier allotted the AB-17 bungalow on Mathura Road after she was appointed a minister in the Kejriwal government last year.  The AAP on Friday claimed that Kejriwal had moved to AAP MP Ashok Mittals bungalow on Ferozeshah road near Mandi House in the Lutyens zone. Criticising the Kejriwal, Delhi BJP President challenged him to hand over the custody of the Sheesh Mahal bungalow to the Secretary of Public Works Department (PWD) if he has nothing to hide. In a letter, it is stated, It is brought to your attention that the keys of the house at 6, Flag Staff Road handed over to PWD were taken back after some time are yet to be handed over to PWD to complete the process of handing over, even after the brief visit at the house on Sunday today afternoon. As you are aware, some vigilance cases pertaining to the construction of the residence at 6, Flag Staff Road are underway. It is therefore necessary on the part of PWD to undertake an inspection and a detailed stock of inventories inside the house prior to making fresh allotment of the house, it added. The Delhi BJP chief said, Four days ago, we all witnessed the drama of Arvind Kejriwal leaving the bungalow holding his parents hands, but as per government rules, Arvind Kejriwal still retains possession of the Sheesh Mahal to this day.He claimed that as per protocol, whenever a government bungalow is vacated, an inventory is made, and the condition of the bungalow is documented through videography, but none of this was done here. While Gupta addressing a press conference, said  in reality, Kejriwal did not vacate his bungalow. For show, he sent some belongings in two small trucks to his new residence. Most of his belongings are still in the "Sheesh Mahal," and Kejriwal still retains possession of it, along with the keys.
