‘Were our workers..take full responsibility’: Hindu Raksha Dal on JNU attack

A fringe group Hindu Raksha Dal has taken responsibility for the attack on students and teachers of Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU). The group's leader Pinky Chaudhary took the onus of the attack on Tuesday in a video posted on Twitter. “JNU is a hotbed of anti-national activities, we can't tolerate this. We take full responsibility of the attack in JNU and would like to say that they were our workers,” Chaudhary said in the video. More than 30 people were injured in the attack on Sunday evening which took place during a meeting called by JNU teachers' association. Masked persons with iron rods and sticks were seen roaming around the university premises and hostels, thrashing students.
