JAMMU: I) Scores of protests rocked the Jammu region following remarks by AAP MLA Mehraj Malik against a particular community, with organisations demanding an apology from him.
Speaking to reporters outside the Assembly on Thursday, Malik said, “They (Hindus) will not close down liquor shops because they drink during festivals and marriages too. They are addicted to it.”
In Jammu, the Dogra Front, Shiv Sena, VHP, Bajrang Dal, and several social organisations staged protests at different places against the AAP MLA over his remarks that “hurt the Hindu community”. PTI
