She requested police officials to provide her protection.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. BJP accept your defeat," she said.It was the third day of commotion in the House."As soon as the voting was taking place, the BJP Councillors clearly sensed that they were losing. That is why they stormed the session. As soon as I was about to announce the result, the BJP Councillors, especially Arjun Marwah, Chandan Chaudhary, and Ravi Negi came to the stage. Chaudhary dragged my chair and pushed me. I ran for my life," Shelly said.She also alleged that the BJP "deliberately" created a ruckus for over 2.5 months to stall the MCD meeting and run the House unconstitutionally."BJP every time created a ruckus during the standing committee election.

"They also touched my neck. It was done by a male Councillor. They haven't allowed a single House sustain. I do not know if she's Delhi's Mayor or AAP's. She acts on orders by Kejriwal and their masters," she said.In the unprecedented fight in the House and resulting commotion, AAP Councillor Ashok Kumar Maanu collapsed. He later recovered and joined the party's protest. Both BJP and AAP blamed each other for the violence.AAP's Saurabh Bharadwaj claimed AAP received 138 votes in a poll of 6 members of the Delhi MCD Standing Committee and BJP received lesser."AAP has 134 Councillors, one joined BJP. 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."Election officers declare the election and say that votes declared invalid by Mayor are valid. Three candidates each of AAP and BJP have won. But AAP does hooliganism here as instructed by Kejriwal. We will not tolerate this goondaism and approach the Court," he said.AAP leaders attacked the BJP over the ruckus. "They are so shameless that they attacked even women and the Mayor. BJP goons did this."AAP leader Atishi alleged that BJP showed goondaism in the Civic centre."Standing committee election was going on. When counting started BJP realised they were losing and they created a ruckus. The mayor was attacked and physically assaulted by the BJP male member," she said."What behaviour is this? This is shameful and condemnable. The country is seeing this. BJP should accept their defeat. I request BJP to stop their goondaism. Those who have attacked the Mayor will be sent behind bars," Atishi added.BJP leader Vijender Gupta said election results are being tampered with, wrong announcements are being made and they are indulging in fistfights.Gupta said six members were supposed to have been elected to Standing Committee."Three members each from AAP and BJP were elected. One AAP member lost. All this was done to make him win and the results were tampered with. We demand CBI inquiry, such people should be arrested and action should be taken," he said.Former Delhi Mayor Aarti Mehra said the Mayor has no right to decide the result."She can only announce it. We will go to court and take legal action against her. I can show a video where Atishi is seen giving directions to create a ruckus. Strong action will be taken. We will fight against these goons," she said.A video shared by Delhi BJP showed Atishi in conversation with an AAP councillor moments before the councillor was seen entering into a violent scuffle.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
