In a shocking incident, allegations have emerged of a woman AAP Rajya Sabha MP Swati Malliwal being assaulted in the Chief Minister’s house. The seriousness of the allegations has raised concerns and calls for a thorough investigation. Swati Malliwal was the former chairperson of the Delhi Commission for Women for 9 years, She also worked as the advisor to the Chief Minister of Delhi on public grievances.
The Incident:
The incident involves Swati Maliwal, a woman Rajya Sabha MP, who was allegedly beaten up in the Chief Minister’s house. The police have been called to investigate the matter, and there are even claims that the assault was ordered by the Chief Minister himself. Such allegations, if proven true, would be a grave crime and a matter of great concern for the country.
An officer (requesting not be named) with the operations cell of the Delhi Police said that two calls were received regarding the alleged incident. “In the first call to 100 [emergency response number] made at around 9.40 am, the caller did not mention her name. But in the second call at around 9.54am…the caller told the police that her name is Swati Maliwal and Delhi chief minister’s aide Bibhav Kumar is manhandling her,” said the officer,
Implications for Aam Aadmi Party:
If the allegations are proven and an FIR is lodged, it could spell trouble for the Aam Aadmi Party. The party’s reputation and electoral prospects may be affected by such a serious incident occurring in the presence of the Chief Minister. The party will need to address the issue and clarify its stance on the matter.
Medical Test and Legal Proceedings:
Swati Maliwal has visited the Civil Line police station to file a complaint regarding the incident. As per police protocol, a medical test will be conducted to determine the extent of the assault. This test will play a crucial role in establishing the veracity of the allegations. The medical report, known as the Medico Legal Case (MLC), will be used as evidence in further investigations and potential legal proceedings.
The Importance of the MLC:
The MLC is a document prepared by a doctor that details the injuries sustained by the victim. It includes information about the location and nature of the injuries. The MLC serves as a crucial piece of evidence in court proceedings. In this case, it will help establish the extent of the assault and strengthen the case against the accused.
Reactions and Speculations:
The allegations have sparked reactions from various quarters. Some believe that the incident is a result of internal conflicts within the Aam Aadmi Party, while others express concern over the safety of women in positions of power. The lack of response from party leaders has raised eyebrows and fueled speculation about the party’s involvement.
Past Incidences:
This isn’t a new story. Back in February 2018, the Chief Secretary of Delhi, Anshu Prakash, accused Aam Aadmi Party MLAs of orchestrating a planned attack on him during a late-night meeting at Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s residence. The Delhi Police filed an FIR against AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan and 11 other MLAs. Khan and Jarwal were arrested at that time based on a report from Arvind Kejriwal’s adviser, V.K. Jain, who witnessed them allegedly physically assaulting the Chief Secretary.
The allegations of assault on a woman AAP Rajya Sabha MP in the Chief Minister’s house are deeply troubling. The incident calls for a thorough investigation and swift action against the perpetrators. The medical test and subsequent legal proceedings will play a crucial role in determining the truth behind the allegations. The Aam Aadmi Party must address the issue and provide clarity to mitigate any damage to its reputation.
