Patna ASP Komal Meena

Patna ASP responsible for law and order

“Some BJP workers came to gherao the Congress office at Sadaqat Ashram, because of which a law-and-order situation developed. Stone-pelting and lathi blows also took place. Several people were injured and are being treated. Police intervened in time to stop the violence, and the situation has now been normalised.”

Dr Snehashish Vardhan

Bihar Congress spokesperson

“The historic Sadaqat Ashram is not merely the Congress headquarters but a symbol of India’s freedom struggle. The cowardly attack by the BJP reflects its desperation as it loses political ground. Such repeated acts demonstrate the party’s disregard for democracy.”
