Bigg Boss 16 star Archana Gautam and father allegedly manhandled and mobbed at Delhi Congress office

New Delhi: Archana Gautam, a former Bigg Boss 16 contestant who later ventured into politics, has been making headlines again, but this time for an unfortunate incident. The actress-turned-politician and her father were reportedly manhandled and mobbed outside the Congress party office in New Delhi, where they had gone to extend their congratulations to Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge and Congress National General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi on the passage of the women’s reservation bill in Parliament.

The incident, which was captured in several videos that have circulated on the internet, has left netizens shocked and outraged. In the videos, Archana Gautam can be seen accompanied by her father as they attempt to enter the Congress office. However, they are denied entry, and a group of women, whose affiliation with the party or their motives are unclear, can be seen confronting the actress and her father. The group of women reportedly misbehaved with Archana Gautam, manhandled her, pulled her dupatta, and shouted at her. In response, Archana and her father are seen attempting to walk away from the situation and towards their vehicle. Archana Gautam has refrained from making any public comments about the incident.
