NEW DELHI: The Rohini court in Delhi has ordered the registration of an FIR against Aam Aadmi Party leader Ashutosh for allegedly making an inflammatory speech against former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Jawaharlal Nehru back in 2016.
In 2016, in a blog, the journalist-turned-politician defended sacked AAP minister Sandeep Kumar, who was expelled from the party on charges of rape. Ashutosh had referred to the reported relationships of Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru with women to defend Kumar over the "objectionable" CD showing him in a compromising position with a woman and claimed that he was sacked as a minister for "perception management".
"We have received the complaint against Ashutosh and it is being looked into," said a police officer.
