The Delhi BJP was quick to take note and demanded action against him.

Delhi BJP president Adesh Gupta slammed AAP for playing "dirty politics" and asked Delhi Chief Minister and AAP convenor Arvind Kejriwal to take action against Kumar for his "irresponsible behaviour".

"Aam Aadmi Party can stoop down to any level for its political interest and corona-infected Delhi MLA Kuldeep Kumar's political sojourn in Hathras is proof of their dirty politics," Adesh Gupta was quoted as saying by news agency PTI.
