Delhi Police’s Special Cell questioned former bureaucrat Ashish Joshi for around nine hours on Wednesday over social media posts allegedly related to the Election Commission of India. Joshi, a former Controller of Communications in the Department of Telecommunications, was questioned in connection with a case registered under Section 192 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. Police said he was confronted with his social media posts and released after his claims were verified. Congress leader Sandeep Dikshit earlier said Joshi was taken by police while on a morning walk in Nehru Park. Police later dropped Joshi home.
