BJP supporter tried to strangulate me inside aircraft: Kanhaiya Kumar
New Delhi, Apr 25 (IBNS): JNU students' union president Kanhaiya Kumar on Sunday said a man tried to strangulate him inside an aircraft.
Kanhaiya alleged that his assaulter is a BJP supporter.
"Yet again, this time inside the aircraft, a man tries to strangulate me," Kanhaiya tweeted.
He has alleged that the staff of the Jet Airways refused to take action against his assaulter.
"After the incident @jetairways staff completely refuses to take any action against the man who assaulted me," posted Kanhaiya.
"Basically @jetairways sees no difference between someone who assaults nd d person who is assaulted. They will deplane you, if you complain," the student leader alleged.
He wrote: "Manas Deka, works in TCS, a strong BJP supporter assaulted me inside the aircraft. Is assault the only tool you have, to fight dissent?"
Kanhaiya, whose arrest over the allegation of shouting anti-national slogans inside the campus created a protests across the country, had been the target of a section of people, who physically attacked him, hurled shoes and threatened him repeatedly.
