Lucknow: An FIR has been lodged against Bajrang Dal activists after a video clip that showed them being trained for self-defence in Ayodhya went viral on the social media even as the Shiv Sena came out to support the Bajrang Dal. According to sources, two Bajrang Dal activists have been arrested in Ayodhya. The police spokesman in Lucknow, however, refused to confirm or deny the development.
The Sena, which has lately been targeting the BJP on various issues, came out in support of Bajrang Dal on Wednesday and said that it was important ‘to fight against terrorism in the country’ and training to use arms was perfectly justified. Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut also questioned the police action to lodge an FIR against the Bajrang Dal office-bearers.
