There is minimum courtesy in democracy. Every citizen has rights under constitution. Is it an attempt to humiliate a CM who is working tirelessly for the poor and the last man of the society?

Senior AAP leaders Ashutosh and Sanjay Singh claimed that this was a ploy to destabilise the party's government in Delhi.
The AAP has alleged that the Delhi Police pressured Arvind Kejriwal's adviser VK Jain to change his statement about the alleged attack on Chief Secretary Anshu Prakash by the party MLAs.
According to the prosecutor, Jain said in his statement that he saw MLAs present at the CM's residence and had no prior knowledge of this.
Arvind Kejriwal's advisor V K Jain has told the police that he had witnessed two MLAs - Amanatullah Khan and Prakash Jarwal - hitting the Chief Secretary.
