AAP Protest at BJP HQ: AAP Workers Detained, Kejriwal Slams PM Modi for ‘Operation Jhaadu’

The Swati Maliwal assault case took a dramatic turn late Saturday night when Delhi’s Tis Hazari Court placed the accused, Bibhav Kumar, in five-day police custody. Kumar, who serves as the personal assistant to Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal, was arrested, prompting Kejriwal to announce a massive Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) protest at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) headquarters in Delhi. As the protest began, several AAP leaders were detained by the Delhi Police, and Section 144 was imposed on DDU Marg, where the BJP headquarters are located. Amidst the chaos, Kejriwal accused the ruling party of orchestrating "Operation Jhaadu," a purported mission aimed at arresting all AAP leaders. He emphasised that this operation was part of a larger strategy by the BJP to undermine and dismantle the AAP leadership. #AAPProtest #BJPHeadquarters #DelhiProtest #KejriwalVsModi #OperationJhaadu #SwatiMaliwalAssault #BibhavKumarArrest #AAPWorkersDetained #TisHazariCourt #DelhiPolice #Section144 #PoliticalTension #AAPVsBJP ~HT.99~PR.152~ED.102~
