Babul Supriyo
Kolkata: Debanjan Ballav, a college student who had allegedly heckled Union Minister Babul Supriyo at the Jadavpur university campus last month, has filed a police complaint claiming he was beaten up by Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) activists at a bus stand near Burdwan in West Bengal. An officer of Burdwan Sadar police station in East Burdwan district said on Thursday: "some arrests have been made" based on Ballav's complaint. "He has complained that some people beat him up at the bus stand when he was coming home from Kolkata," the officer told IANS over phone.
Ballav, a student of Sanskrit College in Kolkata, is a resident of Raina, a village 35 km from the Burdwan town. "Yes, he has named ABVP in the complaint. A case has been started based on the complaint. A few arrests have been made," he said. The ABVP has rubbished Ballav's allegation and called it a cheap effort to get "publicity". Ballav was seen purportedly pulling Supriyo's hair during the Jadavpur University disturbances on September 19.
