The Aam Aadmi Party on Thursday claimed that BJP goons ‘attacked’ the house of Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia.

The Delhi Bharatiya Party however denied the allegation, saying their protest was peaceful.

Earlier on Thursday, BJP workers staged a demonstration near Sisodia’s residence over an alleged conspiracy to kill mayors and leaders of the party-ruled municipal corporations staging an indefinite dharna demanding payment of dues from the Kejriwal government.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal condemned the incident.

“I strongly condemn the systematic, organised and violent attack on Dy CM Manish Sisodia's home. The goons entered his house in police presence when he was away. Why is BJP getting so desperate by the day in Delhi,” he tweeted.

AAP spokesperson Saurabh Bharadwaj in a press conference claimed that the police removed the barricades around Sisodia’s house and did not stop the workers from entering it.

He also played a purported video of the outside area of the minister’s residence where a group of people can be seen forcefully entering inside.

“BJP goons attacked the house of deputy chief minister while he was not at home. The Delhi Police helped the BJP goons in this act,” he said.

The police did not comment anything about the incident immediately.

AAP leader Atishi dubbed the incident as a “black day” in the national capital’s political history.

“This is a black day in Delhi's political history that the Union Home Minister is now using his party goons and Delhi Police to attack the family of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia in his absence from his residence,” she said during the press conference.

Reacting to the charges, Delhi BJP vice president Ashok Goel Devraha claimed AAP leaders were trying to divert attention from the 'conspiracy' to kill BJP mayors and other corporation leaders.

“We protested outside Sisodia's residence to make it clear that the BJP workers are capable of answering any form of challenge,” he said.
