In the Facebook post, the victim questioned whether atrocities had happened with Pandits only and not with Dalits. He wrote that atrocities are happening with the poor daily and there is nothing in the name of their safety.

Some of the people wrote Jai Shree Ram and Jai Shree Krishna in response to Meghwal's post on the film.

Meghwal reacted to the comments with some derogatory remarks against gods which provoked people.

Later, he sought apology on social media for making the comments on Ram and Krishna but some locals forced him to seek apology in a temple.

Yesterday, he was taken to a temple where he sought apology.

"Some of the people present there forced him to rub in nose in the temple and he followed it," the CO said.
