AAP alleges BJP agenda
AAP wrote to the Election Commission of India (ECI) alleging that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP were planning an attack on Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal.

The party made the allegation after graffiti threatening Kejriwal surfaced inside three Delhi Metro stations - Rajiv Chowk, Patel Chowk and Patel Nagar - on Monday. Its Rajya Sabha member Sanjay Singh alleged that the conspiracy to attack Kejriwal was hatched inside the Prime Minister's Office.

"BJP has been in a state of panic ever since Arvind Kejriwal came out of jail. BJP is now plotting to launch a deadly attack on Arvind Kejriwal. This conspiracy is being conducted directly from the Prime Minister's Office. A threat of attack on Kejriwalji has been written at Rajiv Chowk and Patel Nagar metro stations," Singh said.
