Kejriwal attacked, AAP activists assault attacker


     Bhiwani (Haryana), Mar 28 (PTI) Aam Aadmi Party leader
Arvind Kejriwal was today attacked and hit on a neck by an
unidentified man who has been assaulted by his party activists
during his campaigning Charkhi Dadri area in Haryana.
        Kejriwal, who is on a campaign trail in Haryana, said he
was "hit hard" on his neck.
        "Someone hit me hard on my neck jst now. This kind of
violent reaction is expected of them. It only shows their true
character and desperation," the former Delhi Chief Minister
said.
        AAP volunteers then hit back and assaulted the attacker.
        "Our supporters beat him up in retaliation. That is
very wrong. That is not expected of us," Kejriwal said in a
tweet.
        "I am deeply hurt by the reaction of our supporters. If we
also react violently, then what is the difference betn them
and us?," he said.
        Asking his supporters not to indulge in violence, Kejriwal
said AAP's movement will be "finished" if his supporters
retaliate to such attacks.
        "If we ever become violent, the movement wud be finished.
So, please please please, in future, if anyone hits us,
including me, we shud be nice to him," he said in an appeal to
AAP supporters.
        Kejriwal kicked off a three-day roadshow in Haryana from
Dhansa earlier in the day.
