Teen activist claims stone attack on home, demands police protection after father's assault
A 14-year-old activist says goons threw stones at her house and is urging Delhi and Ghaziabad police to provide security following her father's injury during the Jantar Mantar protests.
In a series of X videos, a 14-year-old activist whose father, Sanjay Azad, was severely injured during the Jantar Mantar protests, claimed that goons surrounding her residence hurled stones and bricks at the house. She called on Delhi and Ghaziabad police to assign security, asking who would be accountable if her parents suffered further harm. The activist’s accusations target individuals she identifies as BJP affiliates.
NSUI National President Vinod Jakhar visited the home, questioned the police’s slow response, and suggested the investigation only progressed after a senior political figure intervened. Swatantra Bhardwaj, the right-wing content creator accused of attacking Azad, was arrested and placed in one-day custody by a Delhi court. The incident highlights ongoing tensions between protestors and right-wing groups in the capital.
