New Delhi, November 6
The APP leader allegedly got into a banter with Delhi Police over “loud DJ music” being played at a Chhath ghat in Chirag Delhi. The argument escalated and they got into a scuffle between the police.
The AAP leaders were holding a meeting on the construction of a culvert in the area. The AAP alleged that BJP supporters were playing loud music to disrupt their meeting.
A panchayat was organised by the residents of Chirag Delhi village on the construction of a culvert on Delhi Development Authority (DDA) land, which was attended by Delhi minister Saurabh Bharadwaj. However, BJP supporters played loud DJ music at a nearby Chhath ghat, which Bharadwaj alleged was an attempt to disrupt the panchayat proceedings.
When the AAP leader reached the ghat along with locals to stop the music, there was a heated exchange leading to pushing and shoving between Delhi Police and locals. The police had to resort to controlling the crowd.
