The police say that the accused was arrested within 22 minutes of the crime being reported.
A video has surfaced that captures the horrific run-in of Swati Maliwal, the chief of the Delhi Commission for Women, with an alleged drunk driver who she claims dragged her after harassing her on the road at a prominent spot in Delhi.
Ms Maliwal had claimed that she was harassed and dragged 15 metres near the AIIMS hospital in Delhi when she was out on the streets on Wednesday night "for a reality check" on the safety of women in the capital.
"Sorry. I can't hear you. Where will you drop me off? I have to go home. My relatives are on the way," the video shows the 38-year-old women's panel's chief telling the man, Harish Chandra, who drove up in a Baleno car and allegedly pressed her to get in.
Ms Maliwal is then seen stepping away and the man drove off but then took a U-turn and returned, showed the video.
