The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has called for Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal's resignation after her critical comments on Atishi, who is set to replace Arvind Kejriwal as Delhi Chief Minister. Senior AAP leader Dilip Pandey accused Maliwal of aligning with the BJP and claimed her remarks were out of line. Maliwal had labeled Atishi a "dummy CM" and criticized her family’s past actions regarding terrorist Afzal Guru. The rift between Maliwal and AAP escalated after an assault allegation involving Kejriwal’s aide. Maliwal’s comments have intensified the internal party conflict.
