BJP Reacts to Swati Maliwal's Allegations

Hours after the incident came to light, Delhi BJP President Virendraa Sachdeva said, "This a shameful incident which has happened in the CM's residence. Arvind Kejriwal's residence has always been in the headlines for similar incidents. Delhi's former Chief Secretary was also assaulted in the CM's residence... Investigation to find out the truth will be carried out by the Police. Swati Maliwal is known to raise issues of Delhi from time to time. I am sure she will not sit quietly in this matter and people will know what a disgusting person lives in the CM's residence."

Reacting to Maliwal's allegations of being assaulted at CM Kejriwal's residence, Senior BJP leader Kapil Mishra expressed shock and raised several questions over the matter. Taking, “Why did Swati have to call the police to Kejriwal's house this morning? Did Kejriwal's PA Bibhav beat up Swati Maliwal? Will the Chief Minister's office give any clarification?”.

He added, "May God grant that the news of beating of a female Rajya Sabha MP in the Chief Minister's house is false". Mishra has also held Kejriwal responsible on this matter. He said, “Agar naukar ne maara hai toh maalik k kehne par maara hai toh hingsa ka asli aapraadhi Arvind Kejriwal honge(If an aide has assaulted her, he must have done it on the orders of his manager, so the main person responsible for this incident is Arvind Kejriwal).” 

BJP National General Secretary Tarun Chugh said, “First, the Chief Secretary and other officers were assaulted and threatened, then a female MP of his own party was assaulted by his Secretary Bibhav at CM Kejriwal's office. It looks as if the CMO has become a boxing ring. FIR should be registered against the accused. This incident shows that something is not right.”

BJP candidate from New Delhi, Bansuri Swaraj said, "We got a shameful news today that after getting instigated by Arvind Kejriwal, his Officer on Special Duty (OSD) has beaten and misbehaved with one of their party's MP Swati Maliwal. She also made a call to Delhi Police and complaint regarding the same. The incident took place in the presence of Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal at his residence. BJP strongly condemns this incident."

Raising question on the safety of women in Delhi, the BJP leader further said, “You cannot save your own Member of the Parliament. How can you save the women of Delhi? How can Kejriwal ensure safety for Delhi?.”
