Pune doctor accosted in Delhi, asked to chant 'Jai Shri Ram'
Pune, May 28 (PTI) A Pune-based doctor and author
Tuesday said he was confronted by a group of youth in New
Delhi and asked to chant 'Jai Shri Ram'.
Arun Gadre said the incident took place near Connaught
Place on Sunday when he was out on a morning walk.
Gadre was staying at the YMCA near Jantar Mantar and
was to go to Bijnor to attend an event organised by the Indian
Medical Association the same day.
"I was taking a morning walk at around 6 am near YCMA
and suddenly a group of youth confronted me and asked me to
chant 'Jai Shri Ram'. As I was taken aback, I just said it.
However, they insisted that I chant it loudly and asked me
'uncle are you not Hindu'," Gadre said.
Gadre said he found the incident 'a little funny' and
did not report it to police.
The youth did not hurt him and that is why he did not
register any police complaint, Gadre said.
He said he later told a journalist friend about what
happened.
Gadre has co-authored a book about malpractices in the
medical field and solutions to improve communication between
doctors and patients. PTI SPK
