New Delhi: Days after Member of Parliament and congress leader Sandeep Dikshit accused Intelligence personnel from the Punjab government of repeatedly visiting his residence and parking their vehicles outside his home.
The Delhi Lieutenant Governor (LG) VK Saxena has directed the city’s police commissioner to investigate surveillance allegations.
Dikshit, a former Member of Parliament and a proposed candidate for the 2025 Delhi Assembly elections made these allegations a few days ago.
In a press release released by the Lieutenant Governor Delhi reads that this pertains to a representation received from Sandeep Dikshit, former MP and candidate of the Indian National Congress for the upcoming Delhi Vidhan Sabha Elections, 2025.
He has raised serious concerns regarding Intelligence personnel from the Punjab government allegedly visiting his residence and parking their vehicles outside his house.
Dikshit further claimed that these actions were being orchestrated at the behest of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convener and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.
He suggested that this could be an attempt to intimidate and discourage him from participating in the electoral process.
Taking cognisance of the matter, the LG emphasised the importance of ensuring a fair democratic environment, particularly in light of the upcoming elections.
The LG has directed the police commissioner to conduct a thorough investigation into the allegations and submit a detailed report within three days to his office.
He meets LG earlier on Thursday and demands probe into the matter.
