Delhi CM Rekha Gupta Attacked During Public Hearing; Investigation Reveals Assailant Rajeshbhai is an Auto Driver from Gujarat, Linking to Prior Attack on Former CM Kejriwal by an Auto Driver.
CM Rekha Gupta: The attack on Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta during a public hearing has raised serious questions about Delhi's security arrangements. As she was meeting with the general public on Wednesday morning, a man suddenly attacked her. The incident has caused a stir throughout the political corridors.
Assailant's Identity and Profession
In the initial findings of the investigation, the police have revealed that the assailant has been identified as Rajeshbhai. He is a resident of Rajkot, Gujarat, and works as an auto-rickshaw driver. Investigations are ongoing regarding his background and mental state. The police are investigating whether the attack was solely due to personal resentment or whether there is a deeper conspiracy behind it.
The Common Factor of Auto Drivers
The most interesting aspect of this whole case is that the assailant's profession directly connects him to the attack on former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. In fact, Kejriwal was also previously attacked by an auto driver. This similarity between the two incidents is emerging, which has also shocked the investigating agencies.
The April 2014 Attack
On April 8, 2014, Arvind Kejriwal was attacked during a roadshow in Delhi. At that time, he was campaigning for the Aam Aadmi Party. A man climbed onto his car with a garland and suddenly slapped him. Later, the investigation revealed that the attacker was an auto-rickshaw driver. This incident garnered a lot of attention at that time, and questions were raised about security arrangements.
Situation After the Attack
Immediately after the attack on Rekha Gupta, the security personnel present at the scene brought the situation under control. Rajeshbhai was taken into custody and is being questioned. In his initial statement, he cited personal dissatisfaction as the reason for the attack, but the police are also investigating other aspects.
