'What's going on in the country?' Kejriwal slams BJP over attack on CJP volunteers
Arvind Kejriwal has accused BJP supporters of assaulting volunteers from the Cockroach Janata Party during their inspection of a local school. Reports indicate that the volunteers faced violence and had their vehicles damaged by villagers. They expressed frustration over police inaction, demanding that those responsible be arrested within 48 hours.
New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal has strongly criticized the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) after an alleged violent attack on Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) volunteers in Rajasthan. On X, Kejriwal accused the BJP of sending goons to stop the CJP from advocating for improved education for children. According to Kejriwal, the attackers beat up the volunteers, tore their clothes, and damaged their vehicles.
The incident occurred while the CJP volunteers were inspecting a government school in Rampura-Kanwarpura village.
CJP founder Abhijit Dipke also claimed that BJP goons attacked his co-convenor Ashutosh Ranka and other members during their visit to the same village. Ranka alleged that the attack was instigated by Madan Dilawar, and that the incident was pre-planned. He threatened to launch a statewide agitation and demanded the arrest of the accused within 48 hours.
The villagers, however, said they were not willing to politicize the issue and that Rs 12 lakh had been approved for the school's construction. They emphasized that they were capable of building the school themselves and opposed the divisive politics promoted by the CJP.
