Several AAP MLAs have approached Delhi Assembly Speaker Ram Niwas Goel seeking deployment of security guards and installation of CCTV cameras in their offices as they apprehended that they might be "framed" in false cases.
An MLA from East Delhi said it would be better if everything is recorded so that no one can level baseless allegations.
The demand comes after the arrest of 12 AAP MLAs by Delhi Police in different cases.
Sources said that Goel has asked the MLAs to write to him so that he can take up the matter with the Delhi Police Commissioner.
Delhi AAP Convener Dilip Pandey said that the party has not raised demand of any security cover for its MLAs, but "we have requested some remedial measures as false case have been slapped on some AAP MLAs in the recent past".
