Trouble for Kiran Bedi? Bedi gifted necklaces to voters to bribe them, alleges AAP

New Delhi, Jan 30: The BJP chief Ministerial candidate Kiran Bedi, who sent a legal notice to AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal, has been accused of poll code violation by the Aam Aadmi Party.

As per reports, Bedi was seen giving necklace to woman while campaigning at Patparganj in east Delhi.

Trouble for Kiran Bedi? Bedi gifted necklaces to voters to bribe them, alleges AAP.
"They are directly luring voters by giving necklaces. This is very dangerous. It is clearly a violation of the model code of conduct," senior AAP leader Manish Sisodia was quoted as saying in a NDTV report.

BJP chief ministerial candidate Kiran Bedi on Tuesday sent a legal notice to AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal for allegedly "misusing" her photograph in the party's poster campaign without her permission.

According to a senior BJP leader, Bedi in her legal notice has asked the AAP leader to give a reply on her notice, failing which she would drag him to court over the issue.

"It irked me. He (Kejriwal) is using my name without my permission. On the poster, it says 'Honest' under his name and 'Opportunist' under mine. This is not acceptable," Bedi told reporters.

She also said that the law would follow its course now.

Aam Aadmi Party has put up posters on many auto-rickshaws plying in the capital, asking the people of Delhi to choose between Kejriwal and Bedi for the CM's post.

Posters of AAP can be spotted on auto-rickshaws having the picture of Kejriwal, which has the word "Imandar" (honest) printed below it while that of Bedi has "avsarvadi" (opportunist).

Training his guns on Kejriwal, Delhi BJP chief Satish Upadhyay said the former Delhi CM has a habit of spreading "lies".
