Aam Aadmi Party MLA Dinesh Mohaniya was detained by the Delhi Police for allegedly misbehaving with a group of women who had gone to him to complain about water crisis.

New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi after the Delhi Police arrested Sangam Vihar MLA Dinesh Mohaniya for allegedly misbehaving with a group of women who had gone to him to complain about the water crisis.

Mohaniya, who is also vice-chairman of Delhi Jal Board, was picked up by a police team while addressing a press conference at his office in Khanpur in South Delhi.

However, Kejriwal took to Twitter and hit out at the PM, saying “Modi declares emergency in Delhi. Arresting, raiding, terrorizing, filing false cases against all those whom Delhi elected.”
