Aam Aadmi Party convener Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday met the autorickshaw driver who had slapped him on Tuesday during a roadshow in Sultanpuri. Kejriwal was accompanied by AAP leaders Manish Sisodia and Dilip Pandey.

The autorickshaw driver, Laali, had slapped Kejriwal when he was campaigning in Delhi's Sultanpuri area. Following the attack, some people at the rally, started beating the attacker, following which Kejriwal asked them to let him go.

The attacker had said that AAP had failed to deliver on its promises to autorickshaw drivers. However, on Wednesday during the meeting with Kejriwal, he apologised for the attack and said he regrets slapping the AAP leader. He also told Kejriwal that he is not backed by any political party and even touched Kejriwal's feet.

Kejriwal had also tweeted, "I am just thinking - why am i being repeatedly attacked? Who r the masterminds? What do they want? What do they achieve? Is violence an answer to country's problems? let them tell me place n time. I will come there. Let them beat me as much as they want, but will that solve the problems?"
