Police have registered a case against Aam Aadmi Party’s Gujarat president Isudan Gadhvi for allegedly claiming through a tweet that the Centre has so far spent Rs 830 crore of the taxpayers’ money on 100 episodes of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘Mann Ki Baat’ radio programme, an official said on Monday.
The case was registered on Saturday after it was found that Gadhvi made the claim without any relevant data to support it, he said.
While the tweet has been deleted by Gadhvi, the Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP alleged that the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) was harassing its leaders through such “false” FIRs.
The 100th episode of PM Modi’s ‘Mann Ki Baat’ radio address was broadcast on Sunday.
