"I am sure that Modiji will tomorrow, will convert this complaint into accusations like violence, eve teasing a girl and extortion and get me arrested," he had stated.

Referring to yesterday's incident, Special CP Law and Order North S B K Singh said the president of Gazipur Aadhti Association had given a letter at Gazipur Police Station stating that Sisodia adopted a "dictatorial attitude" on hearing their grievances during his visit to Gazipur Mandi.
