Afsar Ahmad

Afsar Ahmad, an e-rickshaw driver in Kanpur, was assaulted on August 11 by some Hindu extremists forcing him to chant "Jai Shri Ram" while his five-year-old daughter cried and pleaded to set him free. The men were seen wearing saffron scarves accusing Ahmad of raising anti-national slogans while he repeatedly denied it. Fortunately, the police rescued the duo to a police station. Three people have been arrested hitherto.
