Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was, on Saturday, slapped by a man while he was doing a roadshow in the Moti Nagar area of the city.

The incident, which was captured on camera, shows the Delhi CM riding in an open vehicle amid the chants of “Kejriwal, Kejriwal” when a man, aged around 30 years, wearing a red T-shirt climbs atop the vehicle and slaps Delhi chief minister.

Following the assault, the Twitter handle of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) tweeted: “Another negligence in the security of CM @ArvindKejriwal. Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal got attacked during the roadshow. We condemned this cowardly act. This opposition sponsored attack cannot stop the Aam Aadmi in Delhi.

(Repeated failure of security of Arvind Kejriwal. Is the Modi government waiting for a big attack on Arvind Kejriwal? Is it part of some bigger conspiracy?).”
