The incident unfolded when Kumar was surrounded by a group of unidentified assailants while engaging with constituents in the heart of the city. Shockingly, he was physically assaulted, with one individual forcefully garlanding him before hurling black ink onto his face.
The assault, captured on camera, quickly spread across social media platforms, sparking outrage and condemnation from various quarters. Kumar, known for his vocal stance on social justice issues, has long been a polarizing figure in Indian politics.
Eyewitnesses reported that the attackers approached Kumar under the pretext of offering support, only to unleash a barrage of physical violence and verbal abuse upon him. Lal, one of the assailants, reportedly raised incendiary slogans, adding fuel to an already volatile situation.
The attack has cast a shadow over the electoral process in Delhi, raising concerns about the safety of political candidates and the prevalence of political violence. Both Kumar's supporters and detractors have voiced their opinions, with many calling for swift action and justice.
Authorities have launched an investigation into the incident, promising to apprehend those responsible and ensure that such acts of aggression are not tolerated in a democratic society.
As the nation grapples with the aftermath of this brazen attack, the focus now shifts to Kumar's response and the broader implications for the upcoming elections in Delhi.
