AAP supports bandh by staging protest

Description

AAP workers protested at ITO in support of farmers on Tuesday, the party said. The party had extended its support to the Bharat Bandh called by the farmers and asked the Centre to heed to their demands. On Tuesday morning, the party tweeted that their chief Arvind Kejriwal was kept ‘under house arrest’ by Delhi Police, a claim denied by the police. “After the Chief Minister met farmers at Singhu border, the Central government’s Delhi Police, on directions of the Ministry of Home Affairs, has barricaded the house of the CM from four sides and kept him almost under house arrest. No one can meet him and he cannot come out,” AAP chief spokesperson Saurabh Bharadwaj said while addressing a press meet.
