Recently, a video of Archana Gautam being attacked outside the Congress party office went viral on social media. The actress was allegedly manhandled and her father was beaten up in New Delhi. Archana has now opened up on the incident and called it ‘on-road rape’.
In a recent interview with News18, Archana Gautam opened up on being attacked outside the Congress party office in New Delhi and said that her father and her driver had been severely injured. Talking about the incident, the actress said, “They did not allow us to enter the office and did not open the gates. We were told, ‘Upar se aadesh hai aaki entry bandh hai (We have received orders that you are not allowed)’. I do not know the reason behind it.”
She further added, “I escaped from there and somehow saved my life. I just went there to congratulate them. I thought I would be welcomed nicely because ever since Bigg Boss ended, I had not visited the party office. There were women too who misbehaved with me. I wonder how come they did not feel mercy.”
The actress further added that her father and driver were severely injured in the incident and that she will hold a press conference soon. The actress said, “My father is injured. My driver was hit on his head. This is not right. I am still fine. I will hold a press conference soon and will reveal the truth.”
Recounting the incident, Archana said, “I was banging on cars parked on the road, hoping I could hide in one of those. They pulled my hair. It was no less than an on-road rape. I begged them with folded hands. My father was so scared.”
