Aam Admi Party MLA Manoj Kumar today appeared before the Delhi Commission for Women in an alleged case of domestic violence against him.

DCW chairperson Swati Maliwal said Kondli's MLA wife has lodged a complaint of domestic violence against him following which a summon was issued against him.

"We had issued the summon to the MLA to appear before the Commission and he today appeared. Even his wife was called. Today was the first hearing," said Maliwal.

"DCW does not differentiates between a common man and an MLA and that is why he appeared before the Commission today and proceedings are on. We will help his wife get justice," she said.
 

Kumar is one of the many AAP legislators against whom the Delhi Police has filed criminal cases.
