AAP's Saurabh Bharadwaj, Sanjay Singh protest at PM's residence, blocked from enteringry

The visit comes after BJP's remarks regarding the Chief Minister's residence, where they claimed of extravagant features like gold commodes and swimming pools in the Delhi CM's house.

After being denied entry, Saurabh Bharadwaj said, "We came here to conclude this argument of 'tera ghar, mera ghar'. We said that the PM residence and CM residence should both be shown to the people. So, we came here."

AAP MP Sanjay Singh also accused the BJP of making baseless allegations about luxury amenities at the Chief Minister's residence, including a "golden toilet," swimming pool, and mini bar. Singh, speaking to the media, said that despite these claims being repeatedly made by the BJP, the party failed to substantiate them. "The allegation that the BJP keeps making against us - they should have shown us where is the 'golden toilet', where is the swimming pool, where is a mini bar," he said.

Singh further claimed that the AAP delegation, which had arrived to inspect the property, was prevented from entering the premises. "But, they didn't allow us to see and stopped us outside 'Raj Mahal'. Now, we are heading back," he added, referring to the Prime Minister's official residence as "Raj Mahal."

Earlier, as the AAP Leaders got into a stand-off with police amid a row ooutside the Chief Minister's residence, Delhi Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj accused Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of "running away" from the claims of extravagant amenities being present at the bungalow, saying that public should see the residence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi as well.

"We should also search for these things in the Prime Minister's residence. BJP says that the CM's residence was built for Rs 33 Crores. It is also being said that PM house is being built for Rs 2700 Crores. We will see both the CM residence and the PM house. Let the public see both," Bharadwaj told reporters.

He said that the BJP wanted people to see the CM's residence as they were sending new photos and videos every day. The BJP is running away now that media persons are here, the AAP leader added.

"BJP used to send new videos and photos every day. Today, we came here with all the media persons. Now, the BJP is running away. A three-layer barricading has been put up. They have also put up water cannons and deployed Additional DCP here. This has been turned into a border so that the media can't go in. Show us where are the swimming pool, bar, and golden toilets," Bharadwaj said.

The minister further said that the public should also see the Prime Minister's residence since the BJP wants people to vote on the basis of residence. He said that the BJP was "trembling" since they agreed to show Delhi CM's residence.

"We wanted to contest elections on issues related to water, and electricity. But the BJP wants people to vote on the basis of 'aawas-niwas'. We have come here to show the same, but the BJP is trembling," Bharadwaj said.

Labelling the CM's bungalow as 'Sheesh Mahal', the BJP had claimed that the Chief Minister's residence had swimming pools and a golden commode.

As this happened, Bharadwaj and Singh sat on a 'dharna' outside the CM's residence after being denied entry by the police. They also got into heated arguments with the police personnel deployed outside the bungalow. (ANI)
