Rajyavardhan Singh Parmar knows how to stay in the limelight as the chief of an obscure Hindutva outfit – the Maharana Pratap Sena. Be it with his claims about the Hindu roots of Mughal monuments or his support to BJP MP Brij Bhushan Singh over the wrestlers’ protest. But the reason why he has been in the headlines this week is more bizarre.
Parmar was arrested this week, three days after a woman accused him of sexually assaulting her at the Uttar Pradesh Bhavan – a prominent state guest house in Delhi – after calling her to the spot on the pretext of setting up a meeting with union ministers for her film project.
