'FIR only after Shah's OK': Rahul on case lodged over protester's pellet injury

Delhi Police have registered an FIR following a complaint regarding a student protester's alleged pellet-gun injury. The action came after opposition leader Rahul Gandhi staged a sit-in protest, alleging that authorities initially refused to register the complaint.

The victim, identified as student Sahil Lochab, reported that over 200 pellets became lodged in his body during the protests. He further stated that his vision in one eye remains unclear following the incident.

In the wake of the police action, Rahul Gandhi publicly asserted that the FIR was only filed after receiving clearance from Home Minister Amit Shah. The event highlights growing tensions over police accountability and the handling of student demonstrations.
