Amit Shah on Sunday, accusing the BJP-led Centre of settling «a large number of illegal Rohingyas» in different parts of the city. With the AAP targeting Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri over his tweets and claiming that settling these refugees here was a «conscious decision» of the BJP-led NDA government, the minister accused AAP of indulging in «politics of diversion, false narratives and half-truths».
In the run-up to the Delhi Assembly polls due in February 2025, the ruling AAP and BJP have been hitting out at one another over the issue of illegal Rohingya and Bangladeshi people staying in the national capital.
The BJP has already complained to the Election Commission about illegal Rohingyas and Bangladeshis registered as voters in Delhi «at the behest of AAP».
Citing two tweets by Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri in 2022, Atishi alleged the Union government has settled a large number of illegal Rohingya refugees in different parts of the national capital by keeping the people and the government of Delhi in the dark.
«This seems to be going on for the past several years. On August 17, 2022, Union Urban Development Minister Hardeep Puri published two tweets that clearly show that it is a 'conscious decision and policy' of the BJP government to settle these refugees in Delhi,» she alleged in the letter to Shah.
