Police also stated that no formal permission has been sought for the march, and it will not be permitted.

On Saturday, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal declared that he and other AAP leaders would march to the BJP headquarters on Sunday, challenging Prime Minister Narendra Modi to arrest them all.

“You can see how they are after AAP…I would like to tell the Prime Minister – you are playing this ‘jail ka khel’…Tomorrow, I am coming to the BJP HQ with all my top leaders, MLAs, MPs at 12 noon. You can put in jail whoever you want…” Kejriwal stated during a press briefing.

Kejriwal’s statement came following the arrest of his aide Bibhav Kumar in connection with the alleged assault on AAP MP Swati Maliwal.
