Kejriwal calls public grievances an attack: BJP leader Sachdeva

Reacting to the Aam Aadmi Party’s claims of an alleged attack on Arvind Kejriwal last Friday, Delhi BJP president Virendra Sachdeva assured that no such incident took place.

According to Sachdeva, residents of Delhi have been expressing dissatisfaction with the conditions in the city and are taking their grievances directly to Kejriwal.

Sachdeva claimed that during Kejriwal’s visit to Vikaspuri on Friday, local residents approached him to complain about the ongoing water problems.

When they offered the AAP chief and his party MLAs the same water supplied in their area, Kejriwal reportedly became agitated and later described the encounter as an “attack”.

The BJP leader further accused Kejriwal of failing the citizens of Delhi on key issues like roads, electricity and water, condemning him for calling citizens’ questions a political attack.

According to Sachdeva, Kejriwal and other AAP MLAs are grappling with rising anti-incumbency sentiment, with residents now protesting against poor infrastructure, inadequate sanitation, unreliable water supply, rising electricity bills and deteriorating healthcare services.

The Delhi BJP clarified that there was no physical attack on Kejriwal, which only added to public frustration over deteriorating conditions in the city, alleged mismanagement and allegations of corruption among AAP officials.

Sachdeva noted that as frustration grows, more and more residents are taking to the streets demanding accountability from Kejriwal and his administration.
