AAP complains to EC against BJP for sharing false video claiming to show bad roads in Delhi

The Aam Aadmi Party has filed a complaint with the Election Commission against the Bharatiya Janata Party, alleging that it was spreading misinformation about the state of roads in Delhi, PTI reported on Sunday.

The complaint referred to a video released by the BJP that claimed to show pothole-filled roads in Delhi. The BJP shared the video on January 6 with the caption: “One can’t tell whether there are potholes in the road or the road is in the potholes.”

Commenting on the video, the Aam Aadmi Party said on X: “After resorting to fake voters, the BJP has now been caught making fake ad videos.”
