Kejriwal, in a letter to Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung, had accused him of trying to “save” Girri and New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) vice-chairman Karan Singh Tanwar in Khan’s murder. Girri had asked Kejriwal for a public debate over his allegations. In a letter to Kejriwal on 16 June, Girri had invited him to Constitution Club to produce “evidence” he had against him in the MM Khan murder case on Sunday 4 pm. Kejriwal did not accept the challenge following which Girri, accompanied by his party supporters, reached the Chief Minister’s residence and sat on hunger strike. Khan, an estate officer of NDMC, was shot dead in Jamia Nagar on 16 May, a day before he was scheduled to pass the final order on the lease terms of a hotel which was functioning on a property leased out by the civic body.
