Meanwhile, Maliwal had made a PCR call twice from the CM's residence alleging that she was 'assaulted' by Kejriwal's personal assistant Bibhav Kumar.

On AAP Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal's assault case, Sanjay Singh said, "The entire country was in pain after seeing what happened in Manipur but PM Modi was silent on the issue. Prajwal Revanna raped thousands of women but PM Modi was asking for votes for Prajwal Revanna. When our wrestlers were protesting at Jantar Mantar, Swati Maliwal who was DCW chief was beaten up by Police...PM Modi remained silent on these issues. AAP is our family and has given a clear statement. BJP and PM Modi should answer all these issues that I mentioned...Politics should not be done on Swati Maliwal's issue."
