After her release, Maliwal criticized Kejriwal, stating, “Why is Arvind Kejriwal so afraid of women? Today, thousands of women from Purvanchal came to meet him, but he hid inside his house. He should have come out to address their concerns.”

Speaking about the Yamuna’s pollution, she added, “The water we brought is completely rotten, stinking, and sewer-like. Arvind Kejriwal should have taken a dip in it and even drunk it to understand the gravity of the situation.”
