Ink attack on Pravin Gaikwad was not an assault, says Deepak Kate

08 Aug 2025 | 12:20 AM

Mumbai, Aug 7 (UNI) Deepak Kate, President of the Shivdharma Pratishthan, has clarified that merely ink was thrown at Pravin Gaikwad and no physical attack took place. Accusing the Sambhaji Brigade of starting the trend of ink attacks, Kate questioned, "Why is it called an ink attack when you do it, but a life-threatening assault when we do?”
Speaking about the incident in Akkalkot, Kate said the ink was thrown in protest against the Sambhaji Brigade referring to Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj disrespectfully by omitting honorifics from their name. "We waited for one and a half years for them to correct the name. We sent letters, held protests. If there were technical difficulties, they should have informed us. If they couldn’t use ‘Sambhaji Maharaj’, they could have at least used ‘Sambhaji Raje’, he said.
