“After the meeting, when Sharma came down to see off Kanhaiya, some persons put a garland around Kumar’s neck. After garlanding him, they threw ink on him and tried to assault him. Legal action is being taken on her complaint,” Tirkey said.
An official in Kanhaiya’s election office, who asked not to be named, blamed his rival Manoj Tiwari for orchestrating the attack.
