The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Chandigarh, on Monday, again protested against the rigging in the Mayor election and said that they will continue their hunger strike and protest until justice is delivered in this matter.
Chandigarh police once again used force against the peacefully protesting AAP workers and detained AAP leaders to end the demonstration. AAP Chandigarh co-in-charge Dr Sunny Ahluwalia said that they cannot intimidate us or stop us from fighting for our democracy and constitution.
He added that we have requested the administration that only our 5 people (four volunteers and one councilor) who will be observing hunger strike will sit in front of Municipal Corporation Bhawan in Sector 17. Because of cold weather we set up a tent and mats for demonstrating workers but the police are not even allowing five people to sit there.
They have sent hundred people to stop us from protesting because they know we will win. We are a party born out of a movement so they know we are unstoppable until we achieve our goal, which is to remove the fraud mayor of the BJP and conduct a fair re-election. Dr Ahluwalia said that no matter the struggle, the hunger strike and protest will go on.
