After Maharashtra journalist Nikhil Wagle criticised the politics of Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi chief Prakash Ambedkar, the VBA’s official Twitter handle said it would be “difficult to control the anger” of those who support the party unless the journalist proves his allegations against Ambedkar.
The party’s remarks came while social media handles appearing to be the VBA’s supporters threatened and trolled the journalist. A VBA spokesperson, however, denied that the party’s official handle or any of its office-bearers had engaged in issuing any threat to the journalist.
