"Violence should not happen": Sandeep Dikshit condemns "attack" on Kejriwal

New Delhi [India], January 18 (ANI): Congress leader Sandeep Dikshit has condemned the "attack" on former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and said violence has no place in a democracy.
"We condemn this, violence has no place in democracy. I hope the police will investigate and only then will it be known what kind of attack it was," Dikshit told ANI.
"Violence should not happen. I hope the police will give him more security. Both the parties (AAP and BJP) do not talk about the real issues. Both parties are not getting any votes, We fight with civility, talk with civility, our weapons are thoughts not stones," he added.
Dikshit is contesting against Kejriwal from New Delhi.
AAP has accused BJP "goons" of attacking its national convenor, Arvind Kejriwal. A video shared by the party on its X handle, shows a stone being thrown at the Arvind Kejriwal's car.
AAP claimed that Kejriwal was attacked by the "people" of BJP candidate Parvesh Verma who was also campaigning at that time.
"Fearing defeat, BJP panicked, got its goons to attack Arvind Kejriwal While BJP candidate Pravesh Verma was campaigning, goons of BJP candidate Pravesh Verma attacked Arvind Kejriwal and tried to hurt him so that he could not campaign. BJP people, Kejriwal ji is not going to be scared of your cowardly attack, the people of Delhi will give you a befitting reply," AAP wrote on X.
Parvesh Verma also attacked AAP and said alleged that three youths, who wanted to ask Kejriwal about jobs, were beaten by police personnel who have come from Punjab and were accompanying him.
