The official vehicle of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) legislator Rajesh Garg was discovered sunk in a 15-feet-deep swamp in Outer Delhi’s Badli on Wednesday morning.
The car was found in a swamp in a corner of Siraspur Road in Badli. According to the police, nobody was in the car when it slipped.
“The car was parked on the side of the road near the swamp and the former MLA along with his associates had gone to a nearby area to meet the locals. The car somehow rolled off and fell into the swamp,” said a police officer.
