New Delhi, May 5 (IANS) A day after being slapped by a man during a roadshow, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday blamed the BJP for the attack, saying the party was trying to silence voices raised against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and establish dictatorship.

 Addressing the media, the Aam Aadmi Party(AAP) chief said: "Yesterday a man attacked me. This was the ninth attack on me in the last five years and fifth attack since I became the Chief Minister. I don't think any CM was attacked so many times." 

Kejriwal said that Delhi was the only place in the country where security for the Chief Minister was in the hands of an opposition party.
