Watch: Arvind Kejriwal Slams Gujarat Police For Stopping Him from Travelling In Auto

Ahmedabad: A video of Delhi CM and AAP national convener indulging in a heated argument with an auto driver is making rounds on the internet.

In the video Arvind Kejriwal is seen indulging in a heated argument with some police officials over security protocols.

Arvind Kejriwal, who is on a two-day Gujarat visit to campaign for the upcoming Assembly polls, was not ready to take along policemen with him to the house of an auto-rickshaw driver where he was invited for dinner.

“What security will you give, you have a (black) spot on you…you should be ashamed. Today the people of Gujarat are upset because your leaders don’t go to the public. We are going to the public and you are stopping us from going there,” Mr Kejriwal told an official.

When the officials reminded him about the security protocol, he responded saying,

“It is this protocol that has saddened the people of Gujarat. Your leaders don’t go out in public. The public is unhappy. Tell your leaders that they should go to the public by breaking the protocol sometimes. People are very upset with your leaders.”

 

Post the high voltage drama, a police official sat beside the auto-rickshaw driver who had picked up Mr Kejriwal from the hotel, while two police cars escorted the three-wheeler to Ghatlodia.

Arvind Kejriwal and other state AAP leaders had dinner while sitting on the floor in the auto-rickshaw driver Vikram Dantani’s modest house.
