Three MNS Workers Booked For Allegedly Beating Up BJP Worker For ‘Offensive’ WhatsApp Forward
MNS chief Raj Thackeray and party activists participate in a protest rally.
A case has been registered by police against three Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) workers for allegedly thrashing a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) worker, Pradeep Rane, in the Thane district of Maharashtra after they came across a WhatsApp post forwarded by the latter which they found offensive, reports Business Standard.
The post about the MNS also contained a picture of its party head Raj Thackeray. Rane said in his complaint that he deleted the post and also apologised to the three men, but they still proceeded to beat him and record a video of the attack. The video was also posted on social media by the accused.
As of now, the police investigation is ongoing, but no one has been arrested.

The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
