At a press conference held in New Delhi, Atishi, a prominent leader of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), made serious allegations against the Election Commission of India (ECI), claiming that the poll panel had banned their campaign song, titled ‘Jail Ka Jawab, Vote Se Denge’.

Addressing the media, Atishi asserted that the reason behind the ban was the song’s portrayal of the ruling party and governmental agencies in an unfavorable light.
She criticized the poll panel’s decision, suggesting that it reflected a bias towards the ruling party. Atishi underscored the perceived inconsistency in ECI’s actions, noting that while BJP’s alleged violations of the Model Code of Conduct seemed to go unchecked, AAP’s campaign song faced stringent scrutiny and censorship.
She pointed out the absence of direct references to BJP in AAP’s campaign song, emphasizing that the song’s criticism centered around the concept of dictatorship rather than targeting any specific political entity.
