New Delhi: The ‘political tussle’ between former IPS turned Hindutva’s CM face in Delhi Kiran Bedi and Aam Aadmi Pary (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal took dramatic turn as Kiran Bedi sent Kejriwal a legal notice for using her photo, without her permission, in posters for his campaign.
The posters, pasted on auto-rickshaws, show Mr Kejriwal, 46, and Ms Bedi, 65. He is captioned “imandar” (honest)’; she is titled “avsarvadi” (opportunist).
“Yes, she has sent a notice to Kejriwal. He has been asked to ensure that the posters are removed,” Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) media convener Praveen Shankar Kapoor.
Kiran Bedi, a former top cop and activist, has been accused by Arvind Kejriwal and his party of ideological vacuity; and say that for years, she professed an aversion to politics, declining their offer to run as their chief ministerial candidate in the last Delhi election a year ago.
