The Aam Aadmi Party on Tuesday called for a “gherao” at Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s residence. The protest came amid the arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in the liquor policy case.
Security around PM Modi’s residence at Lok Kalyan Marg has been increased. According to Delhi Police, they have not granted permission to the AAP to hold any protests.
AAP leader and Delhi Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj said, “Even from the ED custody, Delhi CM is worried about the health care of the state. He is worried that because he is jailed, the people of Delhi should not suffer because of it.”
