The incident took place while Kejriwal was addressing a rally against demonetisation. The accused has been taken into custody.


In his address, Kejriwal termed demonetisation a "huge scam" and sought an independent probe into the note ban.


The AAP leader criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the November 8 demonetisation.


"Demonetisation is the biggest scandal in independent India," and "The entire exercise was political and guided by corruption," NewsX quoted him as saying.


Kejriwal had faced several attacks on him in the recent past.
