NSUI activists stage protest, demand suspension of Sena MP

Scores of NSUI activists today staged a protest outside Rail Bhawan here demanding suspension of a Shiv Sena MP from Lok Sabha after he was caught on camera apparently force-feeding a fasting Muslim employee.

Protestors led by NSUI's national general secretary Mohit Sharma raised slogans against the Shiv Sena.

NSUI activists wanted to stage a protest outside Parliament but were stopped near Rail Bhawan where they held a protest.

"We demand the suspension of Shiv Sena MP Rajan Vichare from Lok Sabha. This insensitive, communal and criminal act will not be tolerated. A majority in the Lok Sabha does not mean, they have got license to do anything," NSUI's national spokesperson Amrish Ranjan Pandey said.

Pandey said they would not sit silent till the Sena MP was suspended from Lok Sabha.

As protestors started proceeding towards Parliament, police officials erected barricades outside Rail Bhawan to prevent them.

Several NSUI activists were detained.
