    Credits:
  • The 'ink' attack on Kulkarni once again brought to the surface Sena's menace and the Fadnavis government's inability to check them.

    The attack took place in spite of Devendra Fadnavis' assurance to provide protection.

    Fadnavis had said that the book launch would be supported. However, no anti-India propaganda would be accepted and if such an event took place the organisers would be held responsible.

  • Quote

    Kasuri speaks about the incident

  • "I am not depressed by things like these...I understand political protests, but it should be in a peaceful manner. They have a right to protest, as long as it is been done in a peaceful manner" said Khurshid Mahmud Kasuri, Pakistan's former foreign minister.
