He talked about alleged irregularities in distribution of CNG stickers and claimed that no action has been taken though a complaint was filed by him with the Chief Minister. The incident happened during a press conference at Delhi Secretariat here addressed by Kejriwal on roll out of the second phase of the Odd-Even scheme from April 15. The shoe fell short of the Chief Minister, who had earlier been targeted with ink and was slapped by a man during campaigning for last Assembly election. The attacker, who is about 26-27 years of age, shouted as he was being whisked away. Kejriwal later continued with the press conference. AAP MLA Sourav Bharadwaj while talking to ABP News termed it a pre-planned incident. Bhavna Few months ago, a woman Bhavna Arora from Aam Aadmi Sena threw ink on Kejriwal during a function organised by the Aam Aadmi Party to thank people of Delhi for the success of the odd-even plan.
