Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's health condition in prison is at the center of a heated dispute between the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Tihar jail authorities reported that Kejriwal has only lost 2 kg and is under regular medical supervision, countering AAP's claims of significant health deterioration.

AAP leader Atishi alleged that the BJP was causing potential health risks to Kejriwal, a diabetic, by not addressing his dangerously low blood sugar levels, which she claimed dropped to 50 mg/dL five times, posing risks of coma.

The BJP, meanwhile, accused AAP of resorting to health scare tactics ahead of court hearings to facilitate Kejriwal's bail. Despite conflicting narratives, it is confirmed that Kejriwal is under constant medical monitoring from AIIMS.
