Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLAs, led by Leader of Opposition Atishi, staged a demonstration outside the office of Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta within the Assembly premises on Monday. The protest was in response to the Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) pre-election promise of providing Rs 2,500 to women in the national capital following the first Cabinet meeting.

According to PTI reports, Atishi stated that the AAP legislators had sought an appointment with Chief Minister Rekha Gupta two days prior but had not received a response. “We requested time from the Delhi Chief Minister, but we were not given an appointment. Hence, we are here outside her office in the Assembly. We want to meet her regarding Prime Minister Modi’s promise of providing Rs 2,500 to women after the first Cabinet meeting. Modi’s guarantee is proving to be false,” Atishi told PTI Videos after meeting the Chief Minister.
