'Sheeshmahal 2' pics taken from Pinterest? Atishi 'exposes' Parvesh Verma

Sheeshmahal controversy is back in Delhi. After BJP minister Parvesh Verma shared images from what he claimed was Arvind Kejriwal's new bungalow, the AAP alleged that the images were lifted from Pinterest.

In Short

• Parvesh Verma displayed visuals of the 95, Lodhi Estate residence
• Former chief minister Atishi challenged the visuals within hours of release
• She said the circulated interior photographs were sourced from Pinterest

Purported images from Arvind Kejriwal's new government bungalow, shared by the BJP and dubbed 'Sheeshmahal 2', have become the latest flashpoint between the party and AAP. Hours after Delhi minister Parvesh Verma shared the images of Kejriwal's 95, Lodhi Estate residence at a press conference, former Delhi Chief Minister Atishi was quick to point out that the pictures were not authentic and were actually taken from Pinterest.

In a sharply worded post on X, Atishi emphasised that false claims were being made using random online images. Her tweet was in response to a post by a political commentator who pointed out the eerie similarities between the images shared by Verma and those available on Pinterest.

Pinterest is basically a photo-sharing platform that allows users to discover and share visual content.
