Pallavi Patel Demands Action Against Accused Under NSA

MLA Pallavi Patel stated that Ram Ji Suman belongs to a Dalit family, which is why he was subjected to such atrocities, calling it a pre-planned conspiracy. She emphasised that this was not a one-time incident but had been plotted for a long time.  

In addition, she added that historians have written about the same subject in different ways. However, attacking a Dalit MP's house based on agreement or disagreement is wrong and a highly criminal act. She demanded that the accused be charged under the National Security Act (NSA) and that the Karni Sena be banned, according to a report by Amar Ujjala.

On Tuesday, March 26, members of the Karni Sena attacked and vandalised the Agra residence of Ram Ji Lal Suman. The protest against Suman stemmed from a statement he made regarding Rana Sanga. Following the attack, both the police and Ram Ji Lal Suman's son have filed separate FIRs.
