Arvind Kejriwal and some activists were marching towards the Prime Minister’s Race Course residence demanding resignation and arrest of Union Minister Salman Khurshid over allegations of irregularities by an NGO run by him.
They were stopped and detained when they refused to disperse.They staged a sit-in.
The activist announced that his day-long protest will now continue for an indefinite period. Mr. Kejriwal said they will not leave the venue till the Prime Minister met them or Khurshid resigned from the Cabinet.
Protest and march was organised by Rashtriya Vikalang Party (RVP) and Khejrival was invited as guest.But after Mr. Kejriwal’s protest IAC started sending text messages asking people to join the protest.
The IAC had alleged financial irregularities in the functioning of Zakir Hussain Memorial Trust run by Mr. Khurshid and his wife Louis, a charge denied by both. Mr. Khurshid has also threatened to take Mr. Kejriwal to court.
Editor's View:Its a shame that whenever such march or protest is organised it ends with detention, in such condition one cannot distinguish between INDIA before 1947 and that after it!
