Meanwhile, aggrieved Congress workers are outside the Mandir Marg police station. According to them, the Government of India and Delhi Police are afraid of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, that's why they didn't detain him and instead arrested Randeep Surjewala and Srinivas BV. Some Congress workers believe that if Delhi Police had detained Rahul Gandhi, then it could have been a big case. So due to fear, Delhi Police couldn't detain Rahul Gandhi.
