Allegations and Context
On September 15, 2026, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) protested in south Delhi’s Satya Niketan, alleging that a girl died after falling from a paying-guest (PG) accommodation and that the Delhi Police were “hiding” the incident. The party’s claim follows the September 6 collapse of a five-storey boys’ hostel in the same neighbourhood, which killed seven people. AAP leaders also revived a four-year-old complaint filed by the Ambedkar Kalyan Samiti that accused BJP MLA Anil Sharma of illegal construction and land encroachment for a “five-star” PG on government land.
