Security Row: BJP Questions AAP's Z-Plus Protocol for Kejriwal

The BJP has questioned why Arvind Kejriwal, AAP supremo, requires Z-plus security after Punjab Police personnel were withdrawn. Union Minister Ravneet Singh Bittu criticized AAP for alleged pre-election tactics. Kejriwal claims the changes are politically motivated, while AAP calls for reinstating security to their leader.

The controversy over Arvind Kejriwal's security took a new turn after Punjab Police withdrew personnel from his detail. The Bharatiya Janata Party has now raised questions about the necessity of Z-plus security for him.

Union Minister Ravneet Singh Bittu criticized AAP during a press conference, questioning the need for such high-level security when a woman MP from his party was allegedly assaulted at his residence.

AAP has attributed the move to political motives, calling it a BJP conspiracy and urging the Election Commission to restore the security cover, while the BJP accuses AAP of planning pre-election dramas to incriminate the BJP.
