Man Who Attacked Delhi Chief Minister A Dog Lover, Was Upset, Claims Mother | Read

The man who attacked Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta has been identified as Rajesh Sakriya, originally from Rajkot in Gujarat. Delhi Police reached out to his family, and his mother, Bhanu, has told the media that Rajesh is a dog lover and was upset over the Supreme Court's recent ruling to round up stray dogs in Delhi NCR and shift them to shelters. Some accounts also claim 41-year-old Sakaria went to the public meeting to seek the Chief Minister's help after his relative was arrested. An official response from Delhi Police is awaited. 

"My son loves dogs. He was angry after the Supreme Court's order against stray dogs. And left for Delhi soon after. We don't know anything else," Sakriya's mother Bhanu told the media.
