“Time to time, we get reports of threats to chief minister Bhagwant Mann and Arvind Kejriwal and we share them with the concerned agencies. Following the directions of the Delhi Police and the Election Commission today, we withdrew the component of the Punjab Police in the security of Kejriwal ji,” Director General of Police Gaurav Yadav told reporters in Patiala.

“We showed our concerns to them. We will remain in touch with them. We will share our inputs with the Delhi Police,” the Punjab Police chief added.

The development comes just ahead of the Delhi Assembly elections on February 5, with the results scheduled to be announced on February 8.
