The All India Jat Aarakshan Sangharsh Samiti's president Yashpal Malik today demanded the immediate arrest of those who attacked him and his supporters in Fatehabad district's Samain village.
The Jat leader was allegedly attacked when he was addressing a meeting at the village for a August 27 rally in Jhajjar, the police had said.
"It was pre-planned to disturb the meeting and attack supporters at the instance of a leader in the Haryana government," he alleged.
Though a large number of police personnel were deployed at the spot, they "failed" to take any action against the perpetrators, he alleged.
"This shows that there was involvement of the government for attacking the Samiti's office-bearers and their supporters," the Jat leader said.
He threatened that if those who attacked him were not arrested within three days, the organisation would decide its next course of action.
