Saurabh Bharadwaj Denounces Delhi Police FIR as Political Intimidation

The legal action follows a tense standoff at Vikaspuri Police Station, where Bharadwaj and a delegation of AAP lawmakers demanded the immediate prosecution of PWD Minister Parvesh Sahib Singh. The confrontation stems from a viral video showing Singh allegedly slapping a local resident during a heated inspection of a road in Tilak Nagar. AAP officials claim the project is plagued by corruption and substandard materials, pointing to pavement that allegedly peels away by hand.

Delhi Police maintains that the FIR against Bharadwaj and Jarnail Singh includes charges of obstructing a public servant and physical assault. Meanwhile, former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has intensified the party's campaign, accusing the BJP of arrogance and systemic graft. Kejriwal publicly challenged the minister's conduct, asserting that such displays of violence are unacceptable in a democracy and demanding his swift arrest to address the crumbling state of the capital's infrastructure.
