A mob attacked workers of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) during Republic Day
celebrations here today, leaving several persons injured.

A group of people, under the banner of Hindu Krantikari Sena, allegedly
attacked AAP workers when they gathered at Ram Bagh Garden here to unfurl
the national flag, forcing them to run away from the place.

AAP convener Ashok Talwar, who was at the spot, alleged that the unruly
crowd uprooted the pole, tore national flags and thrashed workers of AAP.

Talwar claimed that the protesters comprising young boys and girls were
shouting against AAP leader and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for
speaking against BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi.

A complaint has been lodged with the police, he said.

"It was a narrow escape for all the AAP activists including women who fled
from the scene otherwise they might have been killed by the angry mob," he
alleged.

AAP members alleged that the attack was a pre-planned move to sabotage the
Republic Day function organised by the AAP here.
