“We are not going to be cowed by the BJP’S petty tactics,” he added. “The man, Anil Kumar, who has been detained, was targeting the bespectacled chief minister’s eyes,” officials said. Kumar, whose Aadhaar card has been recovered, brought the chilli powder to the secretariat in packets of ‘khaini’, or chewing tobacco. “After throwing red pepper powder on Kejriwal, Kumar threatened to shoot him after he comes out of jail,” an official recounted. The attack took place outside the chief minister’s chamber on the third floor when he was leaving for lunch. The Delhi BJP chief said such incidents “cannot be tolerated or justified by anybody”. “This calls for a high-level probe,” Tiwari said.
