Cops' action to detain us unexpected: Kejriwal

October 12, 2012 19:06

Arvind Kejriwal said today that the move by the police to detain us was unexpected. "I will continue protests at Parliament street if released," he told CNN-IBN.

Kejriwal was arrested this afternoon in Delhi with his supporters, including some with special needs, as they marched towards the Prime Minister's house. Kejriwal's supporters punctured a tyre of the bus that was leading him away, prompting his transfer to another vehicle.

Kejriwal wanted the PM to meet differently-abled people today, but was refused an appointment. Sources in the Prime Minister's Office said that the request for the meeting was made this morning, and that Dr Singh had a full day.
