00:00I think we have Pawan Khera with us, Ranjir Sabha MP. He's in the bus right now. Mr. Khera, thank
00:05you for joining us.
00:06Can you give us details what really happened? Where are they taking you, sir?
00:10We have no idea where they're taking us. All of our leaders have been detained and we have been taken
00:16to, well, so-called unclosed location.
00:30Mr. Khera, so they're driving you out and they haven't told you where they're taking you?
00:34They haven't told us. We've been driven around 40 minutes. We still don't know where we are going.
00:40Mr. Khera, please, you know, the election commission has gone on record to say that no formal request was made
00:47by the India Alliance partners for a meeting.
00:51What do they want? They want a wedding kind of an invitation or what?
00:55Yesterday it was announced publicly that Ganesh Gupta only listens to the news which covers BJP, doesn't listen to what
01:02the opposition has to say.
01:04It's very strange. I must say very precautious.
01:10Mr. Khera, are you now, wherever you are going to be taken, you've been detained, does the protest continue?
01:17Are you going to come back in protest or is it what was announced after the CWC and the India
01:23Alliance meeting
01:24that there is going to be now multiple protests on a daily basis?
01:28Has today's protest ended, sir?
01:32Every day.
01:35You're saying the protests will continue every day, Mr. Khera?
01:39Absolutely. Ganesh Gupta has to go.
01:43Mr. Khera, why do you think today the Delhi police showed a fair amount of restraint,
01:47not so much like what had happened in front of Seven Lok Kalyan Magh when Rahul Gandhi had protested there,
01:53where they immediately had physically evicted him?
01:56Why wait nine hours to detain you in the manner in which the Delhi police did today?
02:01They kept telling us that, yes, they will ensure that Ganesh meets us.
02:06But it never happened.
02:07And then suddenly they swooped upon us.
02:10Mr. Khera, are you saying it was conveyed to you by the Delhi police
02:14that the election commission was going to meet you and the CEC would meet you?
02:18No, they kept telling us that, yes, we should be able to meet him tomorrow or something.
02:23But it never happened.
02:24No assurance is came. Nothing happened.
02:27We were just, you know, on the phone line.
02:29So we were ready to spend the night at Akashwani Bhavan.
02:33You were ready to spend the night at Akashwani Bhavan.
02:35We just spoke to Praniti Shinde.
02:37Well, we got all our mattresses there.
02:39We organized our dinner there.
02:41We just spoke to Praniti Shinde and Mahua Moitra.
02:44They allege and claim that they were manhandled by the Delhi police, Mr. Khera.
02:48I can't hear you, Priti. I can't hear you at all.
02:50Mr. Khera, we spoke to Praniti Shinde from your party as well as Mahua Moitra from the TMC.
02:55They allege they were manhandled by the Delhi police.
02:59Well, all of us were manhandled.
03:01Each one of us was manhandled.
03:04And you still don't know where you're being taken?
03:06Since the morning, we'll be in manhand and he'll thrive.
03:09So, and we don't know where they're being taken.
03:11There are injuries on our bodies.
03:14So, well, yeah, let them do what they have to.
03:17Thank you for joining us, Mr. Khera.
03:19I know you're in the bus.
03:20Thank you for joining us and taking the time out, sir.
03:22We've just beamed this conversation live.
