After policemen dismayed over his usage of the slang thulla , a city-based lawyer has filed a criminal complaint against Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for allegedly defaming Delhi Police and stoking “fear, resentment and anarchy” in the Capital.
The complaint was filed by lawyer-cum-RTI activist Subodh Jain at Jyoti Nagar police station on Tuesday morning. It also alleged “misuse of public funds” meant for development towards “misleading” the citizens of Delhi into resenting Delhi Police through “propaganda” over the murder of a woman by her neighbour and his brother here earlier this month.
A senior police officer said the complaint is being examined.
A government official said the advertisements in question had already been removed, but chose to attribute the move as “paying homage to former President APJ Abdul Kalam”.
