A compliant has been filed against Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Sarita Singh on charges of taking bribe in exchange for providing a job.

The complain has been filed at the Welcome Police Station here by Shakeel, who has alleged that the MLA took nine lakh rupees from him for getting him a job.

Meanwhile, MLA Sarita Singh has also filed a cross complaint in M.S. Park police station asserting that she has been slapped with false charges.

However, an FIR has not yet been lodged yet as the Delhi police is probing the matter.

In November last year, Sarita was booked for allegedly misbehaving with a police official on duty in northeast Delhi's Rohtash Nagar area.

According to the police, her driver allegedly hit the police official's motorbike while reversing his car.

An argument broke out between the driver and the officer during which the MLA intervened and allegedly hurled abusive words on the ASI.
