Liquid Thrown At Arvind Kejriwal During Padyatra In Delhi, Accused Detained
High drama ensued in Delhi's Greater Kailash area on Saturday where security personnel overpowered a man who threw a liquid at former chief minister Arvind Kejriwal during his campaign.
Video shared by news agency PTI showed a man trying to grab the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convenor before the security personnel acted swiftly. Kejriwal was seen wiping his face after the liquid was thrown at him.
The Aam Aadmi Party blamed the Bharatiya Janata Party for the attack on Kejriwal.
“Shoot-outs and gang-wars are regularly happening in Delhi, and protection money is being asked (from people). A gym owner was killed outside his gym in Greater Kailash, while a person was stabbed to death in Panchsheel Park. Meanwhile, regular attacks are being carried out on Arvind Kejriwal. The BJP-led central government has completely failed,” Delhi minister Saurabh Bharadwaj told PTI.
