Ratan Lal has been punished under sections 153A and 295A of the Indian Criminal Code. Previously, Ratan Lal had written a letter to PM Modi for granting him security, as he was getting death threats. It has not been known what was the content of Ratan Lal’s Facebook post. The student councils from the University, having a communist mindset, have protested against the arrest of Ratan Lal.

The Central Government should ensure severe punishment to such individuals so that others won’t dare to insult the Hindu Deities !
