New Delhi, March 30: In a shocking incident in the city's Begumpur area, three madrasa students were brutally assaulted for not saying 'Jai mata Di'. According to a report by a renowned Daily, Dilkash, Ajmal and Naeem were strolling in a park near their school when the incident happened.

My friends and I had gone to Bans Wala park, some 300 metres from the madrasa, when we were attacked by a group of young men. They spotted us because we were wearing caps and asked us to say Jai Mata Ki," Dikash said.

It is also being alleged that the police registered an FIR three days after the incident on charges of assault and wrongful restraint. However, no arrests have been made so far.

Deputy Commissioner of Police Vikramjit Singh said,"We were waiting for the medico-legal report. The case was registered on the basis of Dilkash's complaint as he had suffered a fracture. In their complaint, he mentioned that he and his friends were forced to say Jai Mata Ki."

The three victims hail from Bihar's Purnia district and had come to Delhi in 2015 to study at the Faiz-ul-uloom Ghausia madrasa in Ramesh Enclave's Mohammadi Masjid.
