This comes as the BJP continues to intensify its attack on the former Delhi Chief Minister over the «Sheesh Mahal» narrative.
Lamba, who has been fielded against CM Atishi from Kalkaji constituency, pointed out that the said amount was spent on items like carpets, curtains, luxurious toilets, and even a swimming pool.
She further asserted that Kejriwal, who had previously claimed he would not accept any facilities such as a bungalow, car, or security, had reportedly spent the funds on personal luxuries instead.
The Congress leader expressed concerns that this expenditure came at a time when the people of Delhi are grappling with inflation and questioned why the funds were not directed towards providing relief to women facing economic difficulties.
