The BJP Saturday condemned the attack on journalists by Asaram Bapu's supporters and questioned the Congress governments in Delhi and Rajasthan on the controversy surrounding the alleged sexual assault case against him.
"Asaram, what or who is stopping the investigative agencies from taking necessary lawful action? FIRs in Delhi and Rajasthan. Both Congress," tweeted the Bharatiya Janata Party's national spokesperson Nirmala Sitharaman.
Asaram Bapu's followers gathered Saturday at his ashram in Jodhpur in Rajasthan and attacked mediapersons covering developments in the sexual assault case lodged against the spiritual guru.
Condemning the attack, Sitharaman added: "Shocking. Nothing can justify such attacks. Condemn violence."
