AAP's Saurabh Bharadwaj claims Delhi Police harassing Bengali community in CR Park
Delhi Police, according to Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) state president Saurabh Bharadwaj, is allegedly harassing the Bengali community and Durga Puja committees in Chittaranjan Park (CR Park). Bharadwaj claims that police personnel disconnected electricity at a pandal and damaged equipment, and warns that restrictions on Puja celebrations could lead to overcrowding, recalling the Kolkata stampede that claimed 17 lives on Saturday.
The AAP leader's accusations have drawn parallels between the Bengali community's treatment and the Delhi government's permissive attitude towards other cultural events.
