‘Minister’s aides threatened to kill me’: Man recalls being slapped by Parvesh Verma
During a recent road inspection in Tilak Nagar, a controversial act unfolded as PWD Minister Parvesh Verma reportedly slapped a young man named Saheb, invited to report on road damages. Eyewitnesses reported that after Saheb raised concerns about the poor conditions, Verma's reaction escalated into violence, accompanied by associates who intimidated him.
Sahib Singh, a 22-year-old resident of West Delhi, claims he was recording a live video of Delhi PWD Minister Parvesh Sahib Singh during a road project review. Sahib insists he never abused the minister. The incident occurred on Sunday while Sahib was streaming the video on his Instagram account under the direction of AAP MLA Jarnail Singh. Sahib maintains that the Minister's claims of being abused are false, as the entire conversation can be heard in the video he recorded.
