Days after Bibhav Kumar, a personal assistant to Arvind Kejriwal, “misbehaved” with AAP MP Swati Maliwal was seen accompanying the Delhi chief minister at Lucknow airport late last night. Sanjay Singh, another AAP Rajya Sabha MP, was also spotted alongside the chief minister.
Arvind Kejriwal is scheduled to address a joint press conference with Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav in Lucknow on Thursday, May 16.
On Tuesday, Sanjay Singh had at a press conference said that Bibhav Kumar had “misbehaved” with Swati Maliwal at Arvind Kejriwal’s official residence and that the chief minister would take strict action in the matter. The statement had come a day after Swati Maliwal had made a police call from the CM’s residence and also went to the Civil Lines police station.
On Wednesday, Sanjay Singh met Swati Maliwal, even as the Bharatiya Janata Party sharpened its attack on the AAP supremo, asking him to come clean and demanding action against the guilty.
Aam Aadmi Party leaders refused to give details about Sanjay Singh’s meeting with the former DCW chief, who remained incommunicado. The meeting at Swati Maliwal’s residence is seen as an attempt to pacify his party colleague who has been with the AAP since its inception.
Meanwhile, BJP national spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla slammed Arvind Kejriwal while sharing a picture of Bibhav Kumar with Arvind Kejriwal on social media platform X.
