RSS shakha attacked in Rajasthan, three criminals arrested

Two persons were arrested for attacking a Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh shakha in Bundi district of Rajasthan police said on Friday.

The shakha was attacked by a mob on July 10. A mob attacked a group of swayamsevaks, who participated in the event. The swayamsevaks were sustained injuries in the incident after being beaten up by the mob.

Boondi police SP Mamata Gupta has informed that it was a case of altercations between two groups and three persons have been arrested, namely Saddam, a resident of Tonk, Shahid, and Shafi Mohammad.

The police took action after RSS Swayamsevaks demanded strict action against the accused.

“It is not an old matter. We used to organise our sessions in this park. On Wednesday evening, people from Muslim community opposed the session and started using abusive language for us. When we asked them to move away, they began fighting with us. A few of them also beat up our children,” an RSS swayamsevak told media.

“We have filed a complaint with police and they assured us that strict action would be taken against the accused. However, they were given bail later and we are not happy with the probe,” he said.
