His reply read, “This will be your condition in Haryana. If you have the guts, conduct a public meeting here..”
The tweet also hints of self admission that it was indeed the Congress who led the attack on Arun Narang.
Vikram’s Twitter profile confirms his affiliation with the Congress Party. He claims to be Rohtak’s zone in charge of the Youth Congress Social Media wing. He was also seen wishing Holi to his followers using Congress’s logo on social media.
Vikram has been promoting the farmers’ protest through his social media posts and pages. He even justified the sword attack on Delhi police during January 26 riots.
Congress had recently initiated a drive to hire 5 lakh social media activists to challenge BJP in the digital space. Wanting to create an ‘army of truth’ to fight paid trolls, the warriors hired by INC seem to be acting like trolls and goons themselves.
BJP leader Arun Narang attacked
On March 27, anti-farm law protestors in Punjab had attacked BJP’s Abohar MLA Arun Narang. The BJP leader was thrashed brutally and stripped naked by the violent attackers.
When OpIndia reached out to Arun Narang to know his perspective about the incident, Narang said that Bharatiya Janata Party had organized press conferences to highlight the failures of the Congress-led Punjab Government. He was scheduled to attend the press meet in Malout, District Muktsar. As soon as he got out of his car, he was attacked by the goons present on the scene.
The attack on Arun Narang was condemned by top leaders of BJP like Union Railway Minister Piyush Goyal.
