Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Kartar Singh Tanwar's car was attacked by four unknown miscreants in South Delhi on Sunday.
Tanwar, however, did not suffer any injuries but his aide was injured in the incident. AAP leader Dilip K Pandey said that the Chhatarpur MLA was on an election campaign when the incident took place.
He expressed hope that the Delhi Police would initiate action on the persons after identifying them. "During by election campaign, Car of Chhatarpur MLA Kartar Singh Tanwar attacked while he was inside. One person injured badly. Old threat-trics. Looks like someone not ready to accept d defeat easily, resorting to violence. Attackers are yet to b identified in cctv," (sic) he tweeted earlier.
