On August 16, 2026, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Sanjeev Jha wrote to Delhi Lieutenant Governor T.S. Sandhu, requesting a thorough investigation into alleged scams involving the procurement of bicycles, medicines, and rice by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government. Jha stated that a delegation of all opposition MLAs, along with AAP state president Saurabh Bharadwaj, seeks a meeting with the L-G to present documents and evidence. The BJP had previously dismissed the allegations on August 12 as 'baseless,' claiming the AAP was 'rattled by their government’s welfare schemes.' Jha emphasized the need for the facts to come to light and for appropriate action against the guilty, urging the L-G to grant an appointment at the earliest.
