New Delhi: The AAP government on Thursday decided to convene a day’s special session of Delhi Assembly on Monday to discuss the recent attack on chief minister Arvind Kejriwal and other issues. Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia told reporters that the legislators will also discuss the alleged deletion of names in voters list in the city.

Mr Sisodia said, “The Delhi Cabinet  has decided to hold a one-day special session of Delhi Assembly on Monday to discuss recent attack on the CM and deletion of 30 lakh names in voters list across the city.”

The deputy chief minister also said the government has decided to convene the session in view of the attitude of the Centre and the Delhi police over the incident involving Mr Kejriwal.

On Tuesday, a man threw chilli powder at Mr Kejriwal outside his office in the Delhi Secretariat. The chief minister’s spectacles broke but he was not injured in the attack. The attacker, identified as Anil Kumar Sharma, has been arrested. The Delhi government and the AAP had blamed the Delhi Police for the security breach. Mr Sisodia had even alleged that the attack was carried out at the behest of the BJP. The CM  had claimed on Wednesday that his political rivals were conspiring to get him eliminated. But the Delhi BJP had termed the incident as a “drama” and demanded a “high-level” probe into it.
