The one-day special session of the Delhi Assembly scheduled tomorrow is expected to be a stormy affair as the opposition BJP plans to come down hard on the AAP government over former minister Kapil Mishra's graft charges against Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.

The ruling Aam Aadmi Party will also seek to corner the BJP and its government at the Centre over alleged EVM manipulation.

AAP MLAs are also expected to raise the recent CBI raid at the Delhi Secretariat and issuance of a notice to the Aam Aadmi Party by the Centre to furnish details of its overseas funding during the session.
 

The ruling party had already termed the CBI raid and MHA's notice to AAP as "political vendetta" by the BJP-led central government.

On its part, the BJP, whose strength of MLAs has been increased from three to four in the 70-member Assembly after it won the Rajouri Garden bypoll last month, will try to corner the AAP government on governance and other issues.
