Samal’s action to suspend the five party workers came hours after three of them were arrested by the Kharavela Nagar police.
Five-six BJP workers barged into Sahoo’s cabin at the BMC office and dragged him out, kicking and punching him repeatedly. The incident had created a massive outrage especially among the OAS officials who sought the arrest of all the accused persons.
