Rahul Gandhi’s Dharna Forces FIR in Sahil Lochab Pellet Gun Case | BJP Hits Back | Brass Tacks
Rahul Gandhi’s protest over alleged pellet-gun injuries during the July 20 student protest has triggered a major political confrontation in Delhi. The Leader of Opposition staged a dharna outside Parliament Street Police Station alongside 19-year-old Sahil Lochab, demanding registration of an FIR over the injuries allegedly suffered during the CJP-led protest at Jantar Mantar.The latest development is significant: Delhi Police has registered an FIR on Sahil Lochab’s complaint. Reports state that the case has been registered under Sections 118 and 125 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. Rahul Gandhi ended his sit-in after the FIR was registered and described the development as a “first step towards justice.”Gandhi had accused authorities of failing to act on Lochab’s complaint and questioned police accountability over the alleged use of pellet guns against protesters. During the protest, he warned that he was prepared to remain at the police station for an extended period if the FIR was not registered.The BJP has strongly criticised Gandhi’s dharna, accusing him of turning the issue into political theatre and questioning his approach to the police action controversy. n18oc_Brass-Tacksn18oc_indiaNews18 Mobile App - https://onelink.to/desc-youtube
