While SAD members showed black flags to the Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal the farmers protesting at petrol pumps also raised their voices against him.
It may be recalled that former IPS officer Kunwar Vijay Pratap Singh was a part of the SIT probing the 2015 Kotkapura police firing incident in Punjab.
This is the second visit of Kejriwal to the state in nearly 3 months. Earlier in March, the Delhi CM had hit out at the Captain Amarinder Singh-led Punjab government, accusing it of not keeping its poll promises and deceiving people.
Last week, he had visited Gujarat to strengthen the party as he had announced to contest elections on all Assembly seats in the two states next year.
