Holding bangles, they protested outside CM Kejriwal's residence and raised slogans against him for maintaining silence over the incident.
Expressing their outrage, the women leaders argued that if such an atrocity happened against a woman Rajya Sabha MP at the Chief Minister's residence and Kejriwal did not take any action, then he should step down from the post.
After recording the statement of Maliwal, Delhi Police on Thursday lodged an FIR. The incident had occurred at CM Kejriwal's official residence on Monday.
