Local resident who disputed the CJP’s account of the incident
“Rajasthan Police seems to be a mute spectator while goons attack CJP volunteers for visiting govt schools. They don’t seem to have a problem with schools running in buffalo stables, but somehow have a problem with CJP volunteers entering those schools. What exactly are they trying to protect?”

“When Ashutosh reached there with his team, they were subjected to a very serious attack. Stones were pelted at them, vehicles were attacked, and women members were also assaulted. We have seen the videos where BJP goons were beating and assaulting CJP volunteers in groups.”
