'Playing video without any context': Swati Maliwal's reaction

Witout taking any name, Maliwal said on X that the video was shared "without any context" by the people of "political hitman" to save himself.

"Like every time, this time also this political hitman has started efforts to save himself. By getting his people to tweet and playing videos without any context, he thinks he can save himself by committing this crime. Who makes a video of someone being beaten up? The truth will be revealed to everyone as soon as the CCTV footage of the house and the room is checked. Fall to whatever level you can, God is watching everything. One day everyone's truth will come out in front of the world", Maliwal tweeted.
