August 11, 2015 11:41

Activist Yogendra Yadav, who spent the night in police custody after being detained late last night from a farmer protest, has now been arrested along with 90 others. He was dragged by policemen this morning as he tried to speak to the media.

Yadav had barely started speaking when he and his supporters were pushed away by personnel at the police station where he was kept all night.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, his former Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) colleague, tweeted: "I strongly condemn the treatment meted out to Yogendraji by Delhi police. They were protesting peacefully. It is their fundamental right."
