BJP protests against Kejriwal, seeks reply on luxuries at °sheeshmahal° bungalow

BJP leaders and workers held a massive protest here against AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal, seeking his response on the alleged use of "extravagant luxurious items," to renovate the official bungalow earlier occupied by him as Delhi chief minister.

The ruling AAP responded, saying the BJP's theatrics and drama stem from their fear of losing the elections in Delhi. ((Their true agenda is to dismantle the free electricity scheme and hand over power plants to Adani, who will then charge consumers four times the rate, just as seen in BIP-ruled states," ' the party said.

Several protesters, including Delhi BIP president Virendra Sachdeva, gathered near Kejriwa's current residence on Feroz Shah Road and were detained while trying to dismantle police barricades and move ahead.

Police said the BIP leaders and workers detained by them were released later.
