52 Women Workers Of AAP Delhi Unit Sexually Exploited by Partymen!

September 9, 2016

Chandigarh, Sep 9: In more embarrassment for Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), former convenor of Punjab's Ferozepur unit and state committee member Amandeep Kaur has now made a startling claim that 52 women workers from Delhi were sexually exploited by party leaders.

However, the reality is that women are not safe within the party.”

“During a state-level meeting, I was abused too and foul language was used against me. I apprised Delhi Dy CM Manish Sisodia and senior AAP leader Sanjay Singh about the incident, and even staged a dharna outside Kejriwal's place, but all resulted in vain,” she added.

“Out of 52 women, one committed suicide, I will release the list of 51 other victims soon,” she said.

Kaur's claim can seriously dent party's image ahead of Punjab Assembly Elections 2017.

Fresh allegations against the Arvind Kejriwal-led party members come at a time when a Punjab party Observer Vijay Chauhan and ex-women and child welfare and social welfare minister Sandeep Kumar are already facing serious charges of rape.

Kumar was sacked from the council of ministers by Arvind Kejriwal after he received a nine-minute-long CD in which Kumar was purportedly shown in a compromising position with a woman.

The woman had alleged in her complaint that she was sexually harassed by Kumar at his office-cum-residence in Sultanpuri area where she had gone to get her ration card made.

She had also alleged that Kumar had offered her a spiked cold drink following which she could not recall what exactly happened with her and how she had acted.

Meanwhile, Delhi Chief Minister and AAP convenor Arvind Kejriwal will undertake a four-day visit to poll-bound Punjab beginning today and hear out the grievances of party workers in the state, a visit which at a time when AAP is facing "crisis" over several issues including sacking of Sucha Singh Chhotepur as Punjab Convenor.

New Delhi, Jan 17: Airports in Srinagar and Jammu are to be “immediately” brought under the security cover of the CISF in view of the arrest of DSP Davinder Singh, a Jammu and Kashmir government order has said.

The two sensitive airports are to be “handed over” to the CISF by January 31, the order of the Jammu and Kashmir Home Department to the Director General of Police (DGP) said.

“This issue (CISF security at Srinagar and Jammu airports) has acquired immediacy in view of the recent developments relating to the arrest of Davinder Singh, DSP airport security, for trying to assist militants to travel to other parts of the country,” the order issued on Wednesday said.

Police had arrested Singh, a deputy superintendent of police, at Mir Bazar in Jammu and Kashmir’s Kulgam district on Saturday, along with Hizbul Mujahideen terrorists Naveed Baba and Altaf, besides a lawyer who was operating as an overground worker for terror outfits.

The two airports are guarded by the CRPF and the J-K Police at present.

The Union government had last year decided that the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) will be handed over security of these two airports along with the one in Leh in view of their sensitive and strategic location and the threats it faced related to possible terrorist and hijack attempts.

CISF is the national civil aviation security force and at present it guards 61 airports including the ones at Delhi and Mumbai.

News agency had on January 13 reported that the Union home ministry sanctioned about 800 personnel to the CISF in order to take over security duties at the three airports of the newly created Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh.

As per the original plan, the CISF was to take over Jammu airport by next month and the Srinagar and Leh airports after the spell of severe cold ends.

However, officials said, keeping in mind the arrest of the DSP and his alleged links, the latest order has been issued which also directs the J-K Police to make arrangements for accommodation, transport and other logistical requirements of the armed contingent of the CISF on a quick basis.

Once inducted at the most-sensitive Srinagar airport, the CISF will secure access control at both city and air side (tarmac area) while the CRPF will be responsible for securing the outer periphery. At the Jammu airport, the peripheral security duties will be rendered by the JK Police.

An assortment of surveillance and security gadgets like CCTVs, observation monitors, hand-held metal detectors, bullet-proof patrol vehicles and bomb detection and disposal equipment are also being provided by the airport operator, the Airports Authority of India (AAI), to the CISF.

The Union government sometime back made it clear that CISF will be the only civil airports guarding force and all such facilities in the country will be gradually brought under its command to bolster aviation security and tighten anti-terror and anti-hijack protocols.
