Varanasi:
Aam Aadmi Party leader Arvind Kejriwal wrote to the district administration in Varanasi on Tuesday asking it to withdraw his police protection. He also accused a senior police officer of being "biased".
In a strong worded letter to the District Magistrate of Varanasi, Mr Kejriwal said that a deputy Superintendent of Police (SP) has given a "false report" alleging him of using various means to attract media focus, as well as holding meetings in BJP dominant areas in the city and for speaking against Narendra Modi and the BJP.
Mr Kejriwal through his letter enquired whether the deputy SP expects him not speak against Mr Modi and campaign according to what he wants.
Mr Kejriwal complained that this was biased and a pro-Modi and pro-BJP approach. "With this condition a free and fair election might not be held in the temple town here", The AAP leader said
Arvind Kejriwal, through his letter, also said that he doesn't need the security and hence it should be withdrawn.
