In response to the violent vandalism by the Nationalist Congress Party's (NCP) men at the AAP's Mumbai office on February 22, AAP volunteers retorted with a non-violent 'jhadoo' protest outside the NCP offices at Tilak Road, and three other places: Pimpri, Mumbai and Auragabad. They chose a novel way of getting back at their perpetrators — by sweeping the NCP offices and their surroundings with their brooms.


Brooming up: Armed with their brooms, the Aam Aadmi Party volunteers protested outside the NCP office in Pimpri on Sunday afternoon 

Fearing a law and order situation at NCP's Tilak Road office, the Khadak police took preventive action against AAP's district executive committee member, Maruti Bhapkar, and other office bearers, detaining around 25 volunteers involved in the agitation for unlawful assembly. They were later released on bail.
