In a statement last week, Leader of Opposition in Delhi Assembly Ramvir Singh Bidhuri said that the AAP had used abusive language against Delhi Lieutenant Governor V K Saxena.

The BJP has been demanding the sacking of Delhi government ministers Satyendar Jain and Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia over charges of corruption. The AAP has claimed that the saffron party made attempts to "poach" its MLAs but their attempts were foiled since theirs is a ''hardcore honest'' party while the BJP called for a probe into the allegations.
