Lucknow : The Swati Maliwal controversy is getting increasingly awkward for Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.
At a Press conference with Akhilesh Yadav in Lucknow on Thursday, Kejriwal was at a loss to face questions on the issue of Swati Maliwal and quietly shifted the microphone to AAP MP Sanjay Singh.
Singh diverted the issue of Maliwal being roughed up by Delhi Police personnel when she went to support the protesting women wrestlers.
Singh evaded all questions about his meeting with Maliwal and action needed in the matter.
However, he said that the BJP should also answer about atrocities on women in Manipur, the sex scandal involving Prajwal Revanna, the harassment of women wrestlers and the incidents in Hathras and Unnao.
On May 13, former Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) chief Swati Maliwal was allegedly assaulted at the official residence of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal by his personal assistant Bibhav Kumar.
That the incident took place inside the CM’s residence and involved his Personal Assistant (PA) has given the opposition enough ammo to fire at the AAP supremo amid the ongoing election season.
While it is obvious for the BJP to seek political mileage out of the incident, it has raised more questions than answers.
