Ramesh Bidhuri vs Atishi
Ramesh Bidhuri stoked several controversies in the run-up to the Delhi assembly election.
He had compared Atishi with a deer.
"The people of Delhi are suffering in the streets of Delhi... Look at the condition of the streets... In the last four years, Atishi never came to meet the people and now when the elections are here, she is roaming the streets of Delhi like a deer runs in the forest," he had said during campaigning.
Ramesh Bidhuri also questioned Atishi for 'changing' her surname.
“This Marlena (surname used earlier by Atishi) became Singh and changed the name. Kejriwal swore over his children not to go with the corrupt Congress, and Marlena changed father. Earlier, she was Marlena, now she has become Singh. This is their character,” Bidhuri said at an election rally in Delhi's Rohini on January 6.
Atishi had won the Kalkaji seat in the 2020 Delhi assembly election. The Congress has fielded Alka Lamba.
