Delhi CMO Demands Restoration of Official Social Media Handle After Alleged Misuse

The Delhi Chief Minister's Office has accused Arvind Kejriwal of altering its official X handle, sparking calls for legal action and platform intervention.

  • The Delhi Chief Minister's Office (CMO) alleged that its official X handle '@CMODelhi' was renamed to '@KejriwalAtWork' without authorization.
  • The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) accused former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal of 'digital loot,' claiming he misused government digital resources for personal promotion.
  • The BJP demanded an investigation by Delhi's IT department and urged the Lieutenant Governor to take action against the alleged renaming and deactivation of the account.
  • The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) dismissed the allegations as baseless and called for the BJP to focus on governance rather than leveling accusations.
  • The controversy follows the BJP's victory in the Delhi assembly elections, ending a decade of AAP governance, with the new Chief Minister yet to be announced.
