AAP holds nationwide protest against Sisodia's arrest

New Delhi : Aam Aadmi Party leaders and workers staged protests in various states against the arrest of party leader and Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia by CBI in connection with the liquor policy scam case.

The workers were seen sitting on the roads and chanting slogans while some wearing handcuffs against the BJP in the national capital. The workers were seen attempting to cross the barricades and the police were seen pushing them back. The police asked the party workers to step inside the office.

AAP workers protested outside the party office in the national capital and raised slogans "Jail ke taale tutenge, Manish Sisodia chutenge". AAP leaders protested by wearing handcuffs and chanting slogans.

AAP leader Saurabh Bharadwaj said that they have come to give their arrest to the government as the agency has arrested Manish Sisodia in a false case.

"The Centre wants to arrest every leader, MLA and Minister of the AAP. So we have come to PM Modi that we have come to give our arrest. All of us have come to give our arrest. End our party and put us all in jail. The world should know that there is a dictatorship in India and the situation of Emergency is prevailing," AAP leader Saurabh Bharadwaj said.

AAP workers also held protests in Odisha's Bhubaneswar and raised slogans against the BJP government at the Centre.
The party workers also demonstrated in Karnataka's Bengaluru. They were detained by the police.

The AAP workers also protested in Chandigarh.

Protests were also held in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh. The protestors were detained. (with ANI inputs)
