The AAP blamed police for the incident and said there was no personnel to clear the chasing cameras and though Kejriwal's auto stopped at the traffic signal, police forced it to move forward.
About the charge that Kejriwal or the AAP did not take due permission for his roadshow, the statement said: “This (commute from the airport to Churchgate railway station) was no road show or event.
The misreporting that we broke some law in this journey is malicious, to the say the least.”
The AAP pointed a finger at police for isolating Kejriwal at the Andheri railway station, and forcing him to enter through a wrong entrance, while party volunteers were waiting for him at another entrance with full preparation to ensure that normal Mumbai commuters were not affected.
”This led to complete mayhem as there weren't enough police to handle the craze that set off on seeing Kejriwal, many people tried to reach out to shake hands, wish him... And the situation became quite chaotic.”
