There was high drama at the AICC headquarters here today when a person posing as a journalist tried to attack party General Secretary Janardhan Dwivedi with a shoe, apparently miffed over the treatment meted out to Ramdev.
The person, who had identification papers of one Sunil Kumar from the Nav-Sanchar Patrika in Rajasthan, rushed up to Dwivedi, removed his shoe and stopped short of hitting him.
The middle-aged man, wearing a striped T-shirt, was heard telling Dwivedi: “You cannot stop us from asking questions.”
The man was immediately caught by an AICC staffer and several journalists. He was led away from the briefing hall while being beaten up. He was then taken away by the police.
Dwivedi described the incident as “preplanned” attack as he was to speak against Ramdev and his agitation, which the Congress leader said was conducted at the behest of the Sangh Parivar.
