Olympic medalist Bajrang Punia on Monday said that this time "all parties are welcome" to join them and they won't back down till action is taken against the BJP MP.
She has been continuously working for the betterment of women for the past seven years. Maliwal, who was appointed as DCW chairperson by the AAP government, has been associated with the party since its India Against Corruption (IAC) phase.
Giving information about the case, DCW Chairperson Swati Maliwal said, "Five persons, who spoke about raping girls from another community on social media, make their numbers public for spreading obscenity should be arrested."
The women working in the jail receive minimum daily wages from the administration but as per a jail order, Rs 340 is deducted from their salaries as maintenance charges. Other prisoners who do not work at all don't have to pay any such fee.
Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has personally approved Maliwal and Team's term extension.
