The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Sunday condemned the ink attack on Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal during a public meeting at the Chhatrasal Stadium, saying such incidents have got no place in the civil society.

BJP leader Nalin Kohli said that proper investigation should be done to find out whether this is an individual effort or a group was behind the incident.

"It is absolutely wrong and condemnable. These kinds of things should never happen. Throwing a chappal at someone, slapping someone, throwing ink at someone, these kinds of things have got no place in a civil society," BJP leader Nalin Kohli told ANI.

"Everyone has a right to say. We may also oppose Kejriwal and his politics completely. But certainly this kind of issue should not happen. We also expect that we should get to the bottom of it to understand whether it is an individual effort or something behind it is there because if that is the case then it is more condemnable and should be exposed," he added.

Earlier, a woman named Bhavna, claiming to be Punjab in-charge of the Aam Aadmi Sena, threw ink at the Delhi Chief Minister to show her protest over the alleged CNG scam.

The woman was immediately apprehended by the police. However, the Chief Minister told the cops to leave her.

"Leave her; she is talking about some scam. Please take that paper from her she is mentioning some CNG scam," he said.

The event was organised by the AAP Government to thank the people of Delhi for making the odd-even experiment, which ended on January 15, a 'success'.
