New Delhi, Jan. 1 -- The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Thursday said that while major cities globally saw large gatherings, Connaught Place was empty due to the police action. AAP MLA Sanjeev Jha accused the BJP of placing restrictions on public celebrations.
The party's Delhi State President, Saurabh Bharadwaj, said the BJP didn't want people to celebrate the New Year.
"We have come across a viral video in which an individual, who identified as a BJP supporter, expresses dismay at the scene. The person recounted arriving at Connaught Place around 8:30 pm to find shops closed and a lack of festive atmosphere, questioning why Delhiites were denied the opportunity to celebrate," the AAP leaders said.
