AAP claims it was another bid on Kejri’s life, accuses BJP

What if a firearm was taken inside the [Delhi] CM’S house? All the five attacks so far on the CM have links with BJP. RAGHAV CHADHA, AAP spokesperson

NEWDELHI: The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Tuesday described the recovery of a bullet from a visitor to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s Janta Darbar as another attempt on the CM’S life.

The party, while accusing the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of indulging in “petty politics”, said the central government was behind the attacks.

The BJP, however, said they condemn the attacks on the CM but added that AAP should not play politics over it.

AAP spokesperson Saurabh Bharadwaj said, “It’s a serious matter that a man carrying a live cartridge managed to reach the Janta Darbar. We appeal to the Centre to set aside petty politics and pay attention to the elected CM’S security.”

Mohammad Imran, a 39-yearold caretaker of a mosque, was arrested after a bullet was found from his purse during frisking at the Chief Minister’s residence on Monday.

AAP leaders said it was shocking that the man was arrested on the same day when the Assembly was discussing a “series of attacks” on the CM, including the one in which a man tried to attack Kejrwal with chilli powder.

“What if a firearm was taken inside the CM’S house? All the five attacks so far on the CM have links with BJP,” said AAP spokesperson Raghav Chadha.

Leader of the Opposition in Delhi Assembly and senior Delhi BJP leader Vijender Gupta said, “We condemn the attacks on CM. But doing politics on it is unacceptable. They (AAP) are yet to explain who allowed Anil Sharma inside the secretariat with chilli powder.”
