NEW DELHI: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Friday moved a motion of confidence in the Assembly which the House will discuss on Saturday.
"I will bring the vote of confidence in Delhi Assembly today," Kejriwal said in a post on X in Hindi.However, he did not specify the reason behind the move.
This comes days after he alleged that the BJP tried to poach AAP MLAs and topple his government.
Seeking the vote of confidence in the Assembly, he said, "Two MLAs had come to me saying they were contacted by BJP members offering them Rs 25 crore each. They were told that Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal will be arrested and the government will be toppled."
Claiming that the Delhi excise policy case was false, he alleged the BJP wanted to topple the AAP government.
A Delhi court has asked Kejriwal to appear before it on February 17 on a complaint filed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) for skipping summons in an excise policy-linked case and noted that prima facie the AAP chief was "legally bound" to comply.
The ED had moved the court after Kejriwal skipped the fifth summons by the probe agency for questioning in a Delhi liquor policy-linked money laundering case.
