Atishi Video Dispute Escalates as Delhi Speaker Cites ‘Original’ Clip and Seeks CBI Probe After Punjab Court Flags Viral Version as ‘Doctored’

Conflicting forensic findings now drive a CBI referral request, with platform takedown enforcement still incomplete.

Overview

  • Delhi Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta presented an FSL report stating the Assembly recording is original, matches frame by frame, and shows no tampering.
  • A Jalandhar court, citing a Punjab FSL submission that the viral clip was edited and the word ‘guru’ was absent, ordered social platforms to block the video within 24 hours and sought a compliance report in 10 days.
  • Despite the order, the clip remained visible on several profiles, with police saying hundreds of URLs were flagged and some restrictions were applied pending full compliance.
  • Gupta said he will seek a CBI probe into the Punjab FSL examination and the broader handling of the case, while the Delhi Assembly pressed breach‑of‑privilege proceedings against Atishi, requesting her written reply by January 19 and Punjab’s FSL records by January 22.
  • AAP leaders contend both forensic assessments show Atishi did not use the word ‘guru’ and demand action against those who circulated the clip, as BJP and SAD figures call for penalties against Atishi and question the Punjab probe.
