Security has been tightened at the BJP headquarters in New Delhi as the city prepares for a planned protest by AAP leader and Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday. According to officials, the Delhi Police has taken necessary measures to ensure the safety of the area.
The traffic police have also issued a warning for commuters, stating that roads near the BJP office on Deen Dayal Upadhyay Marg will experience heavy traffic due to the protest. In fact, DDU Marg may be closed for a period of three hours, from 11am to 2pm, to accommodate the demonstration. They advise people to avoid these roads and plan their journey accordingly.
A senior police officer confirmed that the security at the BJP headquarters has been increased as a precautionary measure. "We have deployed an adequate number of police personnel and have set up barricades in the area," said the officer.
During a press conference on Saturday, Kejriwal accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of targeting his party by sending AAP leaders to jail. He specifically mentioned Manish Sisodia, Satyendar Jain, and Sanjay Singh as examples. "They are after our party and sending our leaders to jail one after another... Today, my personal assistant was also sent to jail," he stated. He also expressed concern that BJP might target other members of the party, such as AAP MP Raghav Chadha and Delhi ministers Atishi and Saurabh Bharadwaj.
In response, Kejriwal announced that he, along with his MLAs and MPs, will go to the BJP office at noon the next day. He challenged the prime minister to send anyone he wants to jail. "We will stand by our party members and face whatever consequences may come," he declared.
