Atishi

Hours after minister Atishi Marlena was named the new CM of Delhi by the AAP, Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal has hit out at the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) ‘s decision to pick Atishi Marlena as the new Chief Minister of Delhi and claimed that her family had fought a battle to save convicted terrorist Afzal Guru’s hanging.
“Today is a very sad day for Delhi. Today, a woman whose family fought a long battle to save terrorist Afzal Guru from being hanged is being made the Chief Minister of Delhi,” Atishi said on X.
The post further said: “Her parents wrote mercy petitions to the Honorable President to save terrorist Afzal Guru. According to him, Afzal Guru was innocent and was framed as part of a political conspiracy. Although Atishi Marlena is just a ‘dummy CM’, still this issue is related to the security of the country. May God protect Delhi.”

In her post, Maliwal shared the mercy petition that was signed, among several others, by Atishi’s father, Vijay Singh and mother, Tripta Wahi. The petition was addressed to then President Pranab Mukherjee, requesting him to stop Afzal Guru’s hanging.

Responding to the post AAP MLA Dilip Pandey demanded that Maliwal’s resignation from the Rajya Sabha. “Swati Maliwal goes to the Rajya Sabha on AAP’s support, but reads the BJP’s script. She should now try to get a Rajya Sabha ticket from the BJP. If she has even a little shame and morality left, she should resign,” the AAP MLA said.
