Maliwal shared screenshots of rape threats received on social media platforms and said she had been subjected to character assassination and victim shaming allegedly by her own party leaders.
“After the leaders and volunteers of my party i.e. AAP orchestrated a campaign of character assassination, victim shaming and fanning of emotions against me, I have been getting rape and death threats. This got further exacerbated when YouTuber Dhruv Rathee posted a one-sided video against me,” she wrote on X.
