Gujarat Presh Congress Committee (GPCC) president Amit Chavda also stated that y consider state police to also be a part of bigger political conspiracy.

ABVP goons want to start a trend of violence but we want to remind m that we are in Gandhi's Gujarat," said Amit Chavda while speaking to media at site of dharna.
