Days after he was expelled from the Bharatiya Janata Party over his objectionable remarks against Prophet Mohammed, the saffron party’s Delhi unit former media head, Naveen Kumar Jindal, alleged that his family is in danger of being attacked by “Islamic fundamentalists”.

मेरा सभी से पुनः विनम्र निवेदन है कि मेरी और मेरे परिवार के सदस्यों की किसी भी प्रकार की जानकारी किसी से भी साझा ना करें। मेरे निवेदन करने पर भी कई लोगों मेरे निवास का पता सोशल मीडिया पर पोस्ट कर रहे है।

क्योंकि इस्लामिक कट्टरपंथियों से मेरे परिवार की जान को खतरा है।

Last week, Jindal and BJP’s former national spokesperson Nupur Sharma were removed from the party posts for making derogatory remarks against Prophet Muhammad and the Muslim community. Their comments sparked nationwide protests, with hundreds demanding their arrest.

On Friday, Pune City Police booked Jindal for his objectionable remarks after an FIR was registered in the case at the Kondhwa police station on Friday.
