Guwahati, Jan 30 (IBNS): All Assam Students Union (AASU) and Assam Jatiyatabadi Yuba Chatra Parishad (AJYCP) activists, who protested against the Citizenship Amendment Bill, beat up a district BJP president and workers of the RSS while they were on their way to attend a programme organised by the RSS in Assam’s Tinsukia district on Wednesday.
Reports said the RSS had organised a programme at Gopal Chandra Ravichandra Natya Mandir in Upper Assam’s Tinsukia town.
When Tinsukia district BJP president Lakheswar Moran and some RSS workers were heading to attend the programme, some protesters chased the BJP district president and RSS workers and attacked them.
Some protesters threw tyres at the BJP worker and shouted slogans against the RSS.
Later, security personnel rescued the district BJP president and RSS workers from the protesters.
Security personnel have been deployed in Tinsukia to maintain law and order.
