The BJP's high voltage protest against Uttarakhand CM Harish Rawat took a violent turn when local MLA Ganesh Joshi attacked and beat up a police horse deployed to control the protest.
The BJP MLA got carried away and lathicharged the horse as other protesters also joined in.
However, Joshi later defended his action, saying the horse was not given water throughout the day. "As soon as some water was given to the horse he was fine, he was just thirsty. I am not at fault at all," he said.
