Days after an Aam Aadmi Party volunteer committed suicide when her alleged molester got bail, National Commission for Women has now asked Delhi Police to provide protection to another woman worker who has made similar allegations against some of her partymen.
The Commission has asked Delhi Police to post a constable at the woman's residence and also requested for a female constable to accompany her everywhere.
"The Commission shall also arrange for counselling of the victim as she is feeling unsafe," a statement issued by the commission said.
The woman has alleged that she was manhandled and verbally abused by AAP workers at a local event.
