Activists of Awami Ittihad Party (AIP) on Wednesday took out a protest rally from Municipal Park to Press Enclave here to seek probe into alleged manhandling of their supremo and MLA Langate Er Rasheed in the Legislative Assembly in Jammu yesterday. Scores of party activists said that “misbehaving and thrashing of the legislator had hurt the sentiments of people of his constituency.” They were holding banners, displaying photographs of Rashid. “If elected representatives are not allowed to raise issues of public importance on the floor of the house, surely, the democracy is in danger,” said Zeeshan Pandith, who led the protest. “Our leader was humiliated in the assembly for raising the voice of people,” he added.
