Taking strong
exception to Dinesh Mohaniya for his alleged misbehaviour with women who went
to his office to lodge complain about irregular water supply, the Bharatiya
Janata Party (BJP) on Thursday demanded strong action against the Aam Aadmi
Party (AAP) MLA.
"I organise many
activities and if anyone has any complaint, they tell us and we diagnose that.
If there is accusation of beating up, then there must be investigation into it.
Strong action should be taken against Dinesh Mohaniya," BJP leader Manoj Tiwari told ANI.
Delhi BJP chief Satish
Upadhyay told ANI that
everyone knows about the dictatorial attitude of the AAP, so one can't expect
anything more than this.
"I have seen the
video, how the AAP MLA misbehaved with the woman and insulted her. Delhi is a
capital city and everyone knows about the dictatorial attitude of the AAP.
So, I don't think you can expect anything more from them," he added.
An FIR has been
lodged against Mohaniya, who is also the vice-chairman of Delhi Jal Board,
after locals alleged that the MLA and his supporters roughed them up and
misbehaved with women in his office when they went to complain about irregular
water supply.
The case has been
registered under Section 506 (criminal intimidation), Section 509 (word,
gesture or act intended to insult the modesty of a woman)
and Section 323 (punishment for voluntarily causing hurt) of the Indian Penal
Code at the Neb Sarai Police Station.
"When we went to
Dinesh Mohaniya's office, he refused to identify me. I visit his office
everyday to bring water-related issues to his notice. The most important part
is that he doesn't even sign or put up a stamp on our complaints. After that,
he pushed me and other women and even abused us. We want an FIR should be
registered against him and he should be arrested," said the complainant.
"When he abused
and pushed us, we also did the same. Are we here to be beaten up? There is a
severe water issue here. We went there only to ask for water and not for
money," she added.
The incident took
place last evening.
