Kanpur, June 21 -- A 50-year-old man has alleged that he was assaulted at Jhansi railway station in Uttar Pradesh by a group of men linked to Bharatiya Janata Party legislator Rajeev Singh Paricha following a dispute over seating arrangements on a train, even as the Babina MLA denied his involvement and alleged that he and his family were "subjected to mental harassment". Police said both the passenger, identified as Raj Prakash and Paricha, have filed separate complaints over the incident which took place on Thursday night. "The passenger who was attacked has lodged a complaint in Bhopal," superintendent of police, Railways, Jhansi, Vipul Srivastava said. "A police team has left to retrieve footage from Bhopal." Quoting Paricha's complaint, police said that the MLA was travelling from Delhi to Jhansi with his wife Kamli Singh and son Shreyansh Singh in coach E-2 of the Nizamuddin-Bhopal Vande Bharat Express. Paricha said that he was allotted seat 8, while his wife and son were given seats 50 and 51, respectively. The altercation reportedly began when the passengers occupying the nearby seats 49 and 52 were sitting with their legs outstretched. This prompted the MLA to ask the two passengers, including RajPrakash, to change their seats, the complaint said. Paricha alleged Raj Prakash used inappropriate language and threatened his gunner. But Rajprakash alleged that later, a group of eight people entered the train and assaulted him. Paricha denied any involvement, stating that he deboarded before the incident took place. Cops said a probe is being carried out....
