Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has accused the BJP-led central government of inaction regarding law and order issues. He claims he was targeted in an orchestrated attack during his padyatra in Malviya Nagar on November 30.

Speaking at a press conference, Kejriwal stated that the liquid thrown on him was harmless but posed a potential danger. He accused Union Home Minister Amit Shah of sending a message that complainants would face arrest instead of offenders.

Kejriwal condemned the arrest of AAP MLA Naresh Balyan, emphasizing the need to target criminals instead. He alleged that the BJP resorts to dishonest means, fearing a third consecutive defeat in the upcoming Delhi polls.
