A video, which was circulated on social media, has been taking rounds since Friday. In the video, a man can be been seen and people putting forward rapid questions to him. The man can be seen struggling to answer and smiling out of embarrassment.
The incident took a shocking turn when he was slapped by someone behind the camera. He was allegedly assaulted by four persons in a moving train in West Bengal, after he failed to reply to their questions on the Prime Minister and the national anthem.
The victim, a migrant laborer, was on his way to Kaliachak in Malda district from Howrah on when the four persons got into the train and sat next to his seat after he had briefly deboarded at a station, a police officer said.
A local NGO - Bangla Sankriti Mancha - has lodged an FIR against the accused, based on videos taken by co-passengers.
