On Saturday, a tense situation occurred in Greater Kailash, Delhi, when a man threw a liquid at former chief minister Arvind Kejriwal during his campaign. A video showed this man trying to reach for Kejriwal, but quick-action security guards stopped him. After the incident, Kejriwal was seen wiping his face.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) quickly blamed the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for this attack. Delhi minister Saurabh Bharadwaj spoke out, saying that crime is increasing in Delhi, with violent incidents happening regularly. He mentioned a gym owner being murdered and another person being stabbed nearby, all while claiming that Kejriwal has been continuously targeted.
Bharadwaj said, “If a former chief minister isn’t safe in Delhi, how can regular people feel secure?” He accused the central government and the Home Minister of failing to maintain order in the city.
The man responsible for the attack, who was said to live in the area, was taken to the local police station for questioning. This incident follows another claim by AAP that Kejriwal was attacked during a march in Vikaspuri just last month. AAP chief minister Atishi expressed concern about the BJP’s tactics, suggesting that the party is desperate since they cannot beat AAP in elections.
