Rahul Gandhi Reaches Delhi Police Office To File Complaint Over Student’s Pellet Gun Injury| VIDEO

On Friday, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi visited the DCP Office at Parliament Street Police Station in Delhi to file a complaint regarding the alleged use of pellet guns during a student protest at Jantar Mantar on July 20. Accompanied by student Sahil Lochab, who suffered injuries from the incident, Gandhi sought the registration of an FIR and an update on the ongoing inquiry.

He alleged that police had previously refused to register a complaint. The Congress has raised this issue in Parliament, questioning the authorization of pellet gun use and other force against the demonstrators. Gandhi's visit to the Delhi Police office follows continued demands for an investigation into the police action during the protest.

In earlier remarks, Gandhi had directly accused Home Minister Amit Shah of responsibility for the excessive force and the use of lethal weapons, including pellet guns, during the July 20 demonstration.
