New Delhi: In a dramatic turn of events, stones were hurled at Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s vehicle while he was campaigning in the New Delhi Assembly constituency. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has accused supporters of BJP MP Parvesh Verma of orchestrating the attack, further fueling the political showdown between the two parties.
In a post on AAP’s official ‘X’ account, party shared the footage of the video and wrote, “BJP candidate Pravesh Verma’s goons attacked Arvind Kejriwal with bricks and stones while he was campaigning and tried to hurt him so that he could not campaign. BJP people, Kejriwal ji is not going to be scared of your cowardly attack, the people of Delhi will give you a befitting reply.”
