2014-03-26 25 Dailymotion

After eggs, ink was thrown at AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal while he was undertaking a road show in Varanasi on Tuesday (March 25) following his visit to the Kal Bhairav and Kashi Vishwanath temples in Varanasi. Kejriwal's face and shirt were splattered with ink by unidentified people. The UP in-charge of the party Sanjay Singh and former Delhi Law Minister Somnath Bharti were also targeted by these people. The AAP leader also faced sporadic protests while undertaking the road show. Earlier, according to supporters, eggs were thrown at Kejriwal's car outside the Kashi Vishwanath Temple in Varanasi. <br /> <br />The egg-throwing incident occurred when Kejriwal was exiting the temple after offering prayers ahead of his rally in the city, they said. However, police at the spot denied that any such incident had taken place. Later, as the road show moved through the narrow lanes of the temple city, it evoked mixed response from the crowd. "There is no doubt that BJP's Narendra Modi will win from Varanasi," said Rishi Mehrotra, the owner of an electronics shop. "Kejriwalji is in the fray. Let's see what he has to offer after which people can decide," said a B.Ed student. <br /> <br />In a debate moderated by TIMES NOW's Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami, panelists -- Siddharth Nath Singh, Leader, BJP and Kamal Mitra Chenoy, Professor, Centre for Comparative Politics & Political Theory, JNU -- discuss whether, AAP-BJP blamegame on ink, egg attack: does either have the proof?
