Digital Desk: A
video that apparently showed police pulling the hair of Srinivas BV of the
Indian Youth Congress surfaced as demonstrations over Sonia Gandhi's Tuesday
questioning by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in the National Herald Case
grew more intense. Srinivas was observed being shoved inside the police van in
the video that was posted on social media.
Srinivas, who was
having trouble exiting the van, yelled at the media, "I got hit."
Additionally, it was allegedly captured on tape that some security guards
pushed Srinivas BV inside the van. Saying "Aap log kyun maar rahe"
The president of the Youth Congress questioned "Why are you hitting
me?" to which a member of the RAF responded, "No one is hitting
you."
Finally, Srinivas
was placed inside the police vehicle and driven away from the protest area. He
poked fun at the federal government in a subtweet on Twitter, asking,
"What good is democracy if Congress employees in independent India cannot
even move outside their party headquarters? Why is the ruler so fearful?
The Delhi Police
afterwards declared: "We are attempting to identify the workers."
After identification, disciplinary action will be taken against the staff.
The Congress
protest, known as a "Satyagraha," is being organised around India in
opposition to the party's interim president Sonia Gandhi's interrogation about
the National Herald Case.
Rahul Gandhi,
Sonia Gandhi's son and the head of the Congress, as well as a number of other
party lawmakers, were held after congregating at the Vijay Chowk and marching
to the Rashtrapati Bhavan to alert the President to the alleged abuse of
federal agencies by the Centre. Gandhi and other Congress members are being
held at the Kingsway Police detention facility. At first, authorities would not
say where Rahul Gandhi was being brought.
Rahul Gandhi claimed, "Modi is a king, India is a police
state." He stated, "All (Congress) MPs came here," before being
arrested. They discussed unemployment and inflation. We are not able to sit
here because of them (the Police). Inside (the Parliament), conversations are
prohibited, yet here they are arresting us.
