New Delhi, Jul 29 : BJP leaders and workers staged a protest near the AAP office on Monday, demanding the resignation of the Arvind Kejriwal government. Delhi BJP chief Virendra Sachdeva called the deaths of three civil services aspirants at a coaching centre “murder.”

“Those three students, who were the country’s future, died due to the corruption of the Aam Aadmi Party that governs Delhi and MCD,” Sachdeva said.

The three civil services aspirants lost their lives after the basement of Rau’s IAS Study Circle in central Delhi’s Old Rajinder Nagar was flooded following heavy rain on Saturday.

“This is not an accident; it’s murder,” alleged Sachdeva during the protest.

“Strict action must be taken against officers responsible for the death of these students. Whether they are from the MCD or any other agencies, they should be held accountable,” Sachdeva added. He also called for the resignation of Water Minister Atishi and Rajinder Nagar AAP MLA.

Women protesters carried bangles and banged ‘thalis’ as a mark of protest. Delhi Police used water cannons to disperse protesters who were trying to reach the AAP headquarters.
