New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party today filed a complaint with the Election Commission against BJP for allegedly targeting party leader Arvind Kejriwal's “gotra” (sub-caste) in an advertisement.

“Today we went to the Election Commission to complain against the way BJP has started its advertisement attack. BJP has crossed all limits now, they have tagged an entire sect of the Indian society and called them ‘upadravi',” AAP National Secretary Pankaj Gupta said.

He said, “By putting out this kind of an advertisement they have violated the Model Code of Conduct against which have requested the commission to take strict and prompt action.”

The advertisement, third in the series released by BJP, targets Kejriwal for allegedly threatening to disrupt the Republic Day celebrations last year while complaining over not getting an invite this year.
