April 25, 2014 20:33

Miffed by the incidents of violence aimed at AAP volunteers in Varansai, the party today asked the Election Commission for deployment of more central security forces and senior observers in the temple town from where Arvind Kejriwal is taking on Narendra Modi.

"We expect these attacks to become worse in the days to come. In these circumstances, I would request you to direct the deployment of some central security forces and some senior central observers in Varanasi to ensure that the campaign is not marred by violence," party leader and senior advocate Prashant Bhushan said in his letter to EC.
