, who is expected to bring revolution in New Delhi, has been bombarded with complaints during his first ever Janata Darbar on Saturday, Jan 11. According to Delhi government sources, Aam Aadmi Party (

) leaders received at least 2,582 complaints, of which 848 have been marked to the CM.

At least 917 have been marked to Manish Sisodia, the newly appointed Education, PWD and Urban Development Minister in the national capital. As many as 49 complaints have been referred to Law Minister Somnath Bharti, 285 to transport minister Saurabh Bharadwaj, 198 to Labour Minister Girish Soni and 185 have been marked to Health Minister Satyendra Jain. Rakhi Birla, the Women and Child Development Minister, has been referred 116 complaints.

Out of total 2,582 complaints, 848 were marked to CM Arvind Kejriwal

"We have received 2,582 complaints which we have categorised according to the departments they are concerned with or the grievances. They will be further categorised on the basis of urgency. We have also got a lot of suggestions," secretary to the Chief Minister, Rajendra Kumar said.

Kejriwal-led AAP government had called the first of its kind Janta Darbar outside the Delhi Secretariat to hear the grievances of the citizens.

Though many complaints were received at the public meeting, it was marred by mismanagement as the venue, meant to cater to only 1,000 people, was bursting at the seams even as 500 Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) personnel and scores of Delhi policemen tried to manage the crowd.

The chaos forced Kejriwal to leave the venue midway as hundreds jostled with each other to register their grievances. Later, the Chief Minister promised better arrangements for the next Janta Darbar.
