AAP MLA Somnath Bharti poses 5 questions to DCW Chairperson Barkha Shukla after she addressed the media with his wife

Somnath Bharti’s estranged wife Lipika addressed a press conference accompanied by the Chairperson of Delhi Commission for Women Barkha Shukla.

While Bharti did not have much to say about the allegations Lipika made, he had five questions to Barkha Shukla that he asked on Twitter.

The wife of the Malviya Nagar legislator has filed a complaint of domestic violence and made some some pretty scathing allegations against him. For example, Lipika has said that she is scared for her life and that Bharti had threatened her after she first filed the complaint.

While one cannot comment on most of the questions, Bharti does make a valid point when he asks why there was a press conference before his version was heard.
