New Delhi, January 1 (UITV)- Former Chief Minister of Delhi and Aam Aadmi Party convenor Arvind Kejriwal wrote a letter to Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat on the New Year. He has raised many questions about the BJP in this letter. In this letter, Arvind Kejriwal raised questions on some of the actions done by the BJP in recent times and asked whether the RSS supports these actions. Kejriwal asked Mohan Bhagwat, “Whatever wrong the BJP has done, does the RSS support it?” After this, he made serious allegations against the BJP leaders and said that they are openly distributing money, does the RSS support these actions of buying votes? Along with this, he asked whether the RSS does not think that the votes of Dalits and Purvanchalis are being cut on a large scale? Does the RSS think it is right that democracy is being weakened by such actions?
Arvind Kejriwal also asked Mohan Bhagwat whether the RSS does not think that the BJP is weakening democracy? Through this letter, Kejriwal has demanded answers from RSS on some policies and actions of BJP. He believes that RSS should give clear opinion on these issues, because RSS plays an important role in the politics of the country.
Earlier, Delhi Chief Minister Atishi had written a letter to Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena raising the issue of demolition of temples and Buddhist religious places. Atishi accused the Lieutenant Governor that instructions were given to demolish temples and Buddhist religious places located in Delhi on the orders of the Lieutenant Governor. He said in his letter that no temple or religious place should be demolished in Delhi. He said that the faith of the Dalit community is associated with Buddhist religious places and the demolition of any such place can hurt the sentiments of the people.
Atishi also alleged that the religious committee had sent the file of demolition of temples to the Lieutenant Governor without informing the Chief Minister, which was a violation of the constitutional process. He said that such a step could affect the religious harmony of Delhi. He appealed to the Lieutenant Governor to protect the religious places of Delhi and deal with the issue sensitively.

Earlier on Monday, Atishi had also written a letter responding to a comment by Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena. The Lieutenant Governor had expressed concern over Arvind Kejriwal calling Atishi a “caretaker Chief Minister” and called it a “blatant disregard for the democratic spirit and values enshrined in the Constitution”. Reacting to this comment, Chief Minister Atishi wrote that this comment was completely wrong and it was insulting President Draupadi Murmu, who appointed her as the Chief Minister. He also said that it is also an insult to the Lieutenant Governor, as he is acting as the representative of the President.
It is clear from this entire incident that the controversy in Delhi politics is deepening, especially regarding religious places and constitutional issues. The questions and allegations raised by Chief Minister Kejriwal and Atishi seem to show that the coordination between the Delhi government and the Lieutenant Governor has soured. These incidents have made the political atmosphere in Delhi even more tense. Now it remains to be seen what further steps are taken on these issues and whether any concrete solution is found.
