NEW DELHI, Dec 8 - The Aam Aadmi Party on Tuesday alleged that the Delhi Police has put Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal under house arrest after he met protesting farmers at the Singhu border, a claim denied by the city police.
Kejriwal had visited the Singhu border on Monday and reviewed facilities for farmers protesting against the Centre�s new agri-marketing laws.
Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia also said that he was not allowed to enter inside Kejriwal�s residence. The AAP leader later addressed a press conference outside the CM�s residence.
Addressing media, AAP spokesperson Saurabh Bhardwaj claimed the city police has put Kejriwal under house arrest. �On the direction of the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA), the Delhi Police has put Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal under house arrest ever since he visited farmers at Singhu border,� he said.
However, DCP (North) Anto Alphonse tweeted a photograph of the entrance of Kejriwal�s residence and denied the allegations. � PTI
