The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Saturday staged a protest outside Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's residence following reports of procuring snooping equipment. Delhi BJP chief Satish Upadhyay led the protest along with 1,000 party workers. Protesters raised slogans against Kejriwal, demanding his clarification on the snooping equipment issue. Delhi police used water canons on the protesters, few metres away from the CM’s residence in Civil lines area, to stop the protest. Speaking to the media, BJP Delhi Chief Satish Upadhyay said, "AAP wants to break into people's privacy. Who gave them the right to tap Delhi people's phone calls?" He further added, "We will protest against this wherever possible." However, denying details of a report broadcast on a TV news channel, the AAP government said there was plan to fight corruption by procuring any snooping devices for the ACB. AAP spokesperson Nagendra Sharma tweeted, "There is no proposal by the Delhi government to procure anything called as a snooping equipment and no such cabinet note has been circulated."
