    Professor allegedly dragged out of home, thrashed, for criticizing Vajpayee

    An assistant professor at Bihar's Motihari Central University was dragged out of his home and thrashed brutally on Friday for sharing a Facebook post which criticized the late former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee. The victim, Sanjay Kumar, was admitted to Patna's AIIMS as he suffered serious injuries. 12 people have been booked by the police. Here's more about this.

    Attackers reportedly attempted to burn Kumar alive

    Sanjay Kumar alleged that he was dragged from his house on third-floor, and beaten. The attackers reportedly tried to burn him alive, as he shared that Facebook post. But, he said he could have been beaten for protesting the decisions of Vice-Chancellor in the past. "I also received a threat call from attackers, who warned me to not protest against the V-C," Kumar alleged.
