Even as 74-year-old Anna Hazare is leading a peaceful protest fast against corruption, hooliganism in the name of the agitation seems to be rearing its ugly head. While several people have been caught breaking traffic rules, a senior journalist with CNN-IBN was attacked by a group of youngsters claiming to be Hazare supporters.
CNN-IBN Senior Editor DP Satish was beaten up by a group of youngsters claiming to be Hazare supporters on Monday night.
"Youngsters on five bikes were riding shouting Anna slogans, they overtook our car. An altercation took place between the driver and them. They broke open the door and attacked me," said Satish.
Satish suffered injuries on the head and legs and has been admitted to a hospital.
According to the Delhi Police 176 people have been 'challaned' in the last two days. Rogue elements breaking all traffic rules and laws in New Delhi are turning to be a nuisance on the streets of the national capital.
