New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party MP Swati Maliwal on Wednesday claimed that senior party leaders are being pressured to malign her name and leak her personal photos "to break her". However, she is not angry "as the accused is very influential and powerful man in the party".
In her social media post on X, Maliwal said: “I received a call from senior leader of the party who told me that pressure is being created over everyone in the party to speak malicious things against me and to break me by leaking her personal photos.”
“It is being said that whoever supports me will be expelled from the party.
"Someone has been given the duty of doing PC and someone else has been given the duty of tweeting.
"Someone's duty is to call volunteers sitting in America and get something out against me. Some beat reporters close to the accused have the duty of preparing some fake sting operations,” Maliwal alleged.
Maliwal, who faced misconduct by AAP convener and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s close aide Bibhav Kumar at the CM Residence on May 13, asserted, “You may raise an army of thousands, I will face it alone because the truth is with me. I am not angry with them, the accused is a very powerful man.”
“Even the biggest leaders are afraid of him. No one has the courage to take a stand against him. I don't even expect anything from anyone,” the Rajya Sabha MP added.
“I feel sad that the woman minister of Delhi is smilingly maligning the character of another female colleague of the party. I have started a fight for my self-respect, and I will continue to fight until I get justice. I am completely alone in this fight but I will not give up,” she said.
