Well done police. This trouble maker should be screwed up and police should obtain all the details about the organisation and financers behind him.  He is definately a jobless guy and is hired by anti social sangh parivar.  Police should do more investigation as he may be involved in many more issues like this and find out the real person who has hired him and made his brain wash in the name of religion.
