An FIR has been lodged against Delhi BJP legislator Gazendra Daral under the SC/ST Act following serious allegations that he assaulted a local Mandal president.
An FIR under the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act has been filed against Delhi BJP MLA Gazendra Daral. The complaint alleges that Daral physically assaulted the president of a local party Mandal, an act that is punishable under the anti-atrocity legislation.
According to the filing, the incident took place in the capital’s constituency area, where the Mandal president was reportedly beaten by the legislator. The FIR cites the assault as a serious violation of the SC/ST Act, which aims to protect historically marginalized communities from violence and intimidation.
Party officials have not yet issued a formal statement on the matter, and Daral’s legal team has been asked to respond to the charges. The case now proceeds under the jurisdiction of Delhi’s law enforcement agencies, which will investigate the allegations and determine whether further legal action is warranted.
