The Delhi Legislative Assembly has called upon top officials from the Punjab government to provide explanations over a controversial video clip linked to Leader of Opposition Atishi. The clip allegedly shows Atishi making remarks against Sikh Gurus during a past debate.
The Assembly's secretariat has issued notices to the additional chief secretary of home affairs and Punjab's director general of police, urging them to present forensic evidence and related documents by February 27. The request emphasizes the gravity of the situation and the need for thorough investigation.
The dispute intensified after the video clip was circulated by BJP leaders, leading to an FIR being filed in Punjab's Jalandhar. The incident has sparked a significant political controversy, focusing on the delicate subject of religious sentiment.
