Khandhwa, Madhya Pradesh:
A professor in Madhya Pradesh was dragged out of his classroom and attacked by members of the BJP's student party, the ABVP.
Hours later, unrepentant, after a police case has been registered against three ABVP workers and 50 others who were with them, they say the teacher deserved it.
"Choudhary sir used to sexually exploit students ... that is why we took this step," says Rohit Mishra, who is in charge of the ABVP in this part of Madhya Pradesh.
The principal of the college, PC Shastri, denies that there have been any complaints against Professor Ashok Choudhary.
The teacher was in the midst of a class at the Government College when the mob of ABVP supporters stormed in and forced him outside. They smeared black ink on his face, then beat him relentlessly.
Professor Choudhary ran to the Principal's office for help. But a woman from the ABVP barged in there, and hit the professor with her sandals.
Nobody has been arrested so far.
In 2006, Professor H S Sabharwal was assaulted at his campus in Ujjain, allegedly by ABVP workers, who were upset with his attempt to check cheating in student union elections. He died in hospital. ABVP members were tried for his murder but were acquitted in 2009.
