Delhi Trust Vote: Aam Aadmi Party on Saturday launched a sharp attack on Pime Minister Narendra Modi and said that he considers himself a "king". Speaking in the Delhi Assembly, AAP MLA Rajesh Rishi compared PM Modi to former german dictator Adolf Hitler and said that he wants Bhatratiya Janata Party to form governments in all the states across the country. He further stated that in the states where the BJP loses elections, the Prime Minister uses probe agencies like ED and CBI.  

Comparing PM Modi with German dictator Adolf Hitler, the AAP MLA stated: "We have heard of Hitler; he wanted to conquer the world and in his pursuit, he destroyed anyone who dared to oppose him. The same thing is happening in India. The king sitting among us, in his pursuit to form governments across the nation, is using Central agencies, such as ED, CBI or trying to gain support using money power."

Alleging horsetrading, Rishi stated: "He is employing Operation Lotus because he wants his governments in the entire country."

On Saturday, the Delhi Assembly initiated a discussion on the motion of confidence brought by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, who alleged that the BJP tried to poach AAP MLAs to topple his government.

Starting the discussion, the AAP's Kasturba Nagar MLA Madan Lal alleged that the BJP was persistently trying to "fail" and "paralyse" the Kejriwal government -- either by poaching party MLAs or interfering in its workings.

It is pertinent to mention that this is the third motion of confidence of the Kejriwal government in the last three years. It comes amid the AAP's claims that the BJP wanted to break the party by offering money to its MLAs and toppling its government in Delhi.

The previous confidence motions came in August 2022 and March 2023, amid AAP allegations that the saffron party was carrying out "Operation Lotus" to poach its MLA. The AAP has a majority in the Delhi Assembly, with 62 MLAs in the 70-member House. The opposition BJP has eight MLAs, of whom seven are currently suspended.
