CM Arvind Kejriwal condemned the attack and tweeted, “I strongly condemn the systematic, organised and violent attack on Dy CM Manish Sisodia's home."
The Aam Aadmi Party on Thursday claimed that “BJP goons” attacked Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia’s house, where the party workers earlier staged a protest over an alleged conspiracy to kill mayors and leaders of the party-ruled municipal corporations staging an indefinite dharna demanding payment of dues from the Kejriwal government. The BJP, however, refuted the allegations, saying their protest was peaceful. "Police have arrested 6 people in the case," Delhi Police said.
Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal condemned the attack and tweeted, “I strongly condemn the systematic, organised and violent attack on Dy CM Manish Sisodia's home. The goons entered his house in police presence when he was away. Why is BJP getting so desperate by the day in Delhi?"
AAP spokesperson Saurabh Bhardwaj alleged that the police did not stop the goons from entering Sisodia's residence and even removed the barricades around the house.
"BJP goons attacked the house of deputy chief minister while he was not at home. The Delhi Police helped the BJP goons in this act," Bhardwaj added.
Earlier, AAP leader Atishi alleged that Home Minister Amit Shah had 'sent BJP gundas' with the protection of Delhi Police at the Deputy CM's residence. She had also shared CCTV footages from the entrance of the residence, which showed demonstrators entering the premises in presence of police. She called it a "black day" in Delhi's political history.
"This is a black day in Delhi's political history that the Union Home Minister is now using his party goons and Delhi Police to attack the family of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia in his absence from his residence," she said at the press conference.
Reacting to the charges, Delhi BJP vice president Ashok Goel Devraha claimed AAP leaders were trying to divert attention from the 'conspiracy' to kill BJP mayors and other corporation leaders.
"We protested outside Sisodia's residence to make it clear that the BJP workers are capable of answering any form of challenge," he said.
