**New Delhi:** In a dramatic turn of events, the Public Works Department (PWD) has formally allocated the Flagstaff Road bungalow to Delhi Chief Minister Atishi, days after she was asked to vacate the premises. This move comes after a political firestorm erupted following the PWD’s initial directive, sparking accusations of political maneuvering by the BJP.

Atishi, who also heads the PWD, had moved into the bungalow on Monday after former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal vacated it. However, just two days later, she was instructed to move out pending official allotment. This sparked outrage from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), who accused the PWD of acting under pressure from the BJP.

The AAP highlighted that Kejriwal had already vacated the bungalow and accused the BJP of trying to “usurp” the Chief Minister’s residence despite not being in power in Delhi for 27 years. They also alleged that the PWD officials were defying protocol.

The BJP, in turn, accused the AAP of playing the victim card and engaging in drama for political gain.

This latest development has added fuel to the already heated political landscape in Delhi, further deepening the divide between the AAP-led Delhi government and the BJP-led Centre.
