Nainital (U’khand), Nov 18

Days after Congress leader Salman Khurshid’s house in Uttarakhand’s Nainital was vandalised, four persons were today arrested in connection with the attack. Khurshid’s house at Satkol, about 15 km from Nainital, was vandalised on Monday amid the ongoing controversy over his book “Sunrise Over Ayodhaya: Nationhood In Our Times” in which he draws a comparison between Hindutva and terror outfits like ISIS. The arrested are Chandan Singh Lodhiyal (27), Umesh Mehta (30), Krishna Singh Bisht and Rajkumar Mehta (29). — PTI
