New Delhi, April 22 (ANI): Six Students Federation of India (SFI) activists, including SFI general secretary Ritabrata Bandopadhyay and two women, were arrested on Monday by Delhi Police for heckling West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee during her recent visit to the national capital.
The arrested activists will be produced before the court later today.
The SFI is the students' wing of the Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M).
The incident took place in Delhi at Planning Commission office when SFI activists heckled Banerjee and West Bengal Finance minister Amit Mitra. Mitra's kurta was also torn.
The police had advised Banerjee to not get down from her car and instead drive inside. However, she chose to walk amidst slogan shouting.
The later SFI later apologised to Mitra and Mamata for the incident. The Trinamool Congress reportedly threatened to protest in the Parliament as no arrest had been made in the case. (ANI)
