Summary

The Aam Aadmi Party claims that Delhi PWD Minister Parvesh Verma slapped a young man during a road inspection in Tilak Nagar on September 27, 2026, after the man questioned the road's quality. A video of the alleged incident circulated on social media. AAP leaders, including Delhi President Saurabh Bharadwaj and MLA Jarnail Singh, staged multiple protests demanding an FIR against Verma. Verma denies the allegations, claiming the video lacked context and that AAP workers abused and misbehaved with his family. Delhi Police have not registered an FIR against Verma but filed a non-cognisable report and registered an FIR against Jarnail Singh for obstructing public servants. Police received multiple complaints but have not confirmed the alleged slapping incident. During protests, AAP functionaries were detained by police; AAP alleged police manhandled workers and tore a councillor's clothing, which police denied, stating the garment was caught in a bus door. The dispute escalated into a broader political confrontation between the AAP and BJP.
