New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party convenor Arvind Kejriwal was slapped by a youth during his road show in Delhi's Moti Nagar area on Saturday.


In the video, a man wearing a red shirt can be seen climbing atop the open jeep and slapping Kejriwal across the face before he is pulled off the jeep. This is not the first time that the Delhi CM has been attacked.


Kejriwal was campaigning for AAP leader Brijesh Goyal, who is the party's candidate from New Delhi parliamentary constituency. Police had arrested the youth and taken him into custody.


Brijesh Goyal who has been fielded from the New Delhi Lok Sabha seat, has been pitted against former Union minister Ajay Maken of Congress and BJP's Meenakshi Lekhi.

The Delhi chief minister has been attacked several times since he entered public life.

On 20 November, Kejriwal was attacked by a man identified as Anil Kumar Hindustani who was armed with chilli powder outside the Chief Minister's Office in the Delhi secretariat. The incident occurred at 2.10 pm when the chief minister was leaving for lunch.

In October 2016, two ABVP activists threw ink at Kejriwal for his comments on surgical strikes by the army on terror launch pads across the Line of Control in Transport Nagar of Rajasthan's Bikaner district, PTI reported.
