As Congress leaders were detained during a protest in Delhi today, a video showed Youth Congress chief BV Srinivas being manhandled and his hair being pulled by using the police.
“They hit me. They pulled my hair,” Mr Srinivas screamed. Earlier, he used to be heard shouting when a policeman dragged him by way of his hair. One policeman used to be considered roughly pushing him into a car.
The video was shared through many Congress leaders, who condemned what they known as a brutal crackdown on protesters.
Delhi Police stated it would act towards its personnel seen in the video.
“We are making an attempt to perceive the staff. Disciplinary action will be initiated towards the body of workers after identification,” an officer was quoted as announcing via information company ANI.
Congress MP Rahul Gandhi, who led the protest, was once among ratings of celebration leaders detained and taken to a police station.
They were protesting in opposition to Congress president Sonia Gandhi’s questioning by using the Enforcement Directorate in the National Herald case, and also other issues like charge rise, GST and unemployment.
Congress leaders had gathered on a prominent avenue near parliament for their march to the Presidential palace Rashtrapati Bhavan.
They have been detained and bundled into buses by a massive contingent of policemen.
Rahul Gandhi sat on the avenue for some time, surrounded through policemen, before he used to be detained and pressured into a bus with other detained Congress leaders.
