Head of the women's wing of Aam Aadmi Party in Punjab Baljinder Kaur today sought strict action from National Commission for Women against Delhi MLA Devinder Sehrawat for allegedly defaming Punjabi women by levelling false allegations.
In a complaint to the chairperson of the Delhi-based commission, Kaur said that strict action should be taken against Sehrawat as he leveled false allegations against AAP leaders and attempted to harm the image of women of Punjab.
His allegations has resulted in a lot of harassment among not just women but whole of Punjab, she wrote.
She sought that MLA from Bijwasan, Delhi should be arrested and immediately sent to a hospital for his mental treatment, as without any direct evidence he had levelled serious allegations against leaders of AAP.
She also accused Sehrawat of openly threatening and abusing his father Parkash Sehrawat for not fulfilling his demands for money.
Kaur also alleged that his wife Poonam on several occasions had claimed that MLA used to abuse her and beat her while in the army.
