Delhi's Rouse Avenue court on Tuesday ordered the authorities to register an FIR against Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal and other party leaders for allegedly misusing public funds to put up large party hoardings in Dwarka in 2019. The matter was heard by additional chief judicial magistrate Neha Mittal.
The order comes as a fresh setback for AAP convenor Kejriwal, who is out on bail in a case related to the alleged Delhi liquor policy scam and lost the Delhi Assembly elections - including his own constituency of New Delhi - last month.
Hearing a petition on Tuesday, the Rouse Avenue Court directed the Delhi Police to register the FIR and asked for a compliance report by March 18. The case dates back to 2019.
