CJP's Ashutosh Ranka, others assaulted on way to Jaipur govt school, video shows crowd confronting team
The incident occurred near Rampura Kanwarpura village, where Ranka and his team planned to visit a government school to assess its infrastructure and facilities
Ashutosh Ranka, a co-convener of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), and several of his party volunteers were allegedly attacked on their way to a government school in Jaipur's Bagru assembly constituency on Friday. One of the volunteers sustained a fractured arm during the assault, according to Ranka. The incident occurred near Rampura Kanwarpura village, where the CJP team intended to inspect the school's infrastructure and facilities.
Ranka claimed the attackers were workers of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). A video purportedly capturing the incident shows a group of people confronting the CJP team, with chants of "Jai Shri Ram" audible. The BJP has denied the allegations, stating that the team was targeted due to a "shameful" situation in government schools.
