Delhi BJP leaders and workers headed by state president Adesh Gupta staged a protest against arrest of party spokesperson Tajinderpal Singh Bagga by Punjab Police on Friday.

Bagga was arrested by Punjab Police from his home in Janakpuri area in connection with a case registered in Mohali last month.
