Delhi Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta has forwarded a complaint to a House panel regarding alleged misleading statements made by AAP leaders, including Arvind Kejriwal, about government schoolteachers in Delhi being instructed to count stray dogs. The Speaker stated that the Department Related Standing Committee on Education will thoroughly investigate the matter and present its findings promptly. The complaint, received from BJP legislator Ajay Kumar Mahawar, highlighted accusations made by AAP leaders through the media against the Delhi Government, despite its denial of issuing any such directive.
BJP legislators protested outside the Delhi Assembly, demanding a public apology from Kejriwal for distorting facts and eroding public trust. Subsequently, the Delhi Police initiated an FIR based on a complaint from the Directorate of Education, concerning false claims on social media regarding the alleged assignment of duties to Delhi government schoolteachers for counting stray dogs. Delhi Education Minister Ashish Sood criticized Kejriwal for spreading misleading information and urged him to publicly apologize for distorting facts and undermining public trust.
