क्या दिल्ली पुलिस इस मामले को गंभीरता से लेगी? @_SwarajIndia के उपाध्यक्ष और प्रवक्ता @AnupamConnects पर हमला, आंख बाल बाल बची। https://t.co/dBcP7AezrR

कल रात @AnupamConnects भईया पर धारदार हथियार से हमला हुआ। चेहरे पर आँख के नीचे घाव भी आया है। कौन हैं ये हमलावर? देश की राजधानी में सुरक्षा व्यवस्था की ऐसी हालत! @DelhiPolice जल्द दोनों हमलावरों का पता लगाए।@CPDelhi @rajnathsingh @HMOIndia
