‘Cheap, Attention-Seeking politics':JP Nadda Slams Rahul Gandhi Calls 'Dharna Political Frustration'
JP Nadda said Rahul Gandhi’s sit-in was a camera-centric stunt, while police said an FIR had already been registered and the matter is under probe.
- On Friday, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi staged a dharna at the Parliament Street Police Station seeking an FIR for 19-year-old Sahil Lochab, who suffered pellet injuries during a July 20 protest.
- Lochab sustained pellet injuries to his eyes and abdomen during a Cockroach Janta Party-led protest against NEET paper irregularities, subsequently undergoing surgery at the AIIMS Trauma Centre.
- Accompanied by the victim, Gandhi visited the Mandir Marg police station before moving to Parliament Street to meet Deputy Commissioner of Police Sachin Sharma, though his demands remained unmet.
- Union Minister Nadda slammed the protest as "cheap politics," alleging Gandhi orchestrated the dharna to divert attention from Congress criticism over the "Vande Mataram" controversy.
- The Supreme Court has already constituted a five-member committee to investigate the July 20 incident, with Delhi Police also probing the matter, prompting BJP officials to question Gandhi's faith in the judiciary.
