A Delhi Congress Councillor from the Delhi Cantonment Board Sandeep Tanwar was allegedly beaten by a local AAP leader on Saturday after the former tried to save a jhuggi of a Scheduled Caste family from being demolished in his area.
A complaint is filed by the Tanwar at the Naraina Police Station, and also written to Sushil Kumar, Secretary, National Scheduled Caste Commission, seeking a probe into the assaults, and strictest against the AAP leader.
Delhi Congress president Anil Kumar strongly condemned the attack on Congress Councillor and appealed to the Lieutenant Governor and the Police Commissioner to take the strictest action against the AAP leader.
Kumar said that the brutal assault on Tanwar was proof enough that Delhi Chief Minister Arvind’s concern for the people living in 48000 jhuggis across railway tracks in Delhi was false, as he was neither their well-wisher nor keen on saving the slum clusters from demolition following a Supreme Court order, he said.
