Jantar Mantar assault case: Minor CJP activist alleges stone pelting outside her home, seeks police security

In the Jantar Mantar assault case, a 14-year-old minor activist accused her house of being surrounded by goons and pelted with stones following the arrest of right-wing influencer Swatantra Bhardwaj. Bhardwaj was arrested for allegedly injuring 38-year-old Sanjay Azad during the CJP protests. In videos posted on X, the minor alleged that goons from the BJP have been surrounding their house, expressing concern for the safety of her parents.

NSUI National President Vinod Jakhar visited her residence upon seeing the videos, questioning the police's delayed action against the accused and the BJP's alleged protection of such goons. Jakhar pointed out that Bhardwaj himself admitted to attacking Azad during the protests, questioning why the police took action only after Rahul Gandhi brought up the matter.
