Since Congress Councillors are not here, it means there are some BJP Councillors who voted for AAP," he said.Delhi BJP leader Harish Khurana accused AAP of violence and not following the norms.Shelly Oberoi said standing committee elections were held as per BJP demands."Still, they created a ruckus and came up on stage to attack me. I thank female Civil Defence personnel for saving me. BJP members physically assaulted AAP female members.
