BJP MLAs stage protest outside Secretariat against Law Minister

BJP MLAs led by Harsh Vardhan on Monday staged a protest at Delhi Secretariat demanding resignation of Law Minister Somnath Bharti for his alleged role in a midnight raid in South Delhi.

"We have written an open letter to Kejriwal ji demanding that Law Minister should be sacked. We will fight till our demands are met. We will even take it up with the President," said Harsh Vardhan.

The protesting MLAs sat outside the chief minister's office on the third floor of the Secretariat for around two hours. Holding placards, they raised slogans against Bharti and demanded his resignation.

Later, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal met Vardhan and other BJP MLAs and asked them to scale down their protest.

BJP had recently met the Lt Governor and submitted a memorandum containing the same demands. The BJP sharpened its attack by simultaneously launching public protests across the capital against the minister's conduct during a raid in Khirki Extension.

Bharti has been facing severe criticism after he allegedly led a group of AAP workers last week in a raid at the houses of some African nationals. He has also drawn flak from several quarters for having allegedly misbehaved with some women during the raid.

What's your reaction?
