Maliwal protested deteriorating cleanliness in Delhi by delivering truckloads of waste to the former Chief Minister's home, prompting her detention by police.
- Swati Maliwal, AAP Rajya Sabha MP, was detained after dumping three truckloads of garbage outside Arvind Kejriwal’s residence in protest over Delhi’s waste management issues.
- Maliwal collected the garbage from Vikaspuri, claiming the area had been neglected for years, and brought it to Kejriwal’s house alongside supporters carrying protest placards.
- She criticized Kejriwal for turning Delhi into a 'garbage dump' and urged him to address the city’s worsening cleanliness and infrastructure problems.
- Maliwal was detained by police under Section 188 of the Indian Penal Code for violating prohibitory orders and was later released after a few hours.
- The protest reflects Maliwal’s ongoing rift with Kejriwal, which began following her allegations of misconduct at his residence last year, currently under court review.
