Kumar had reportedly tweeted that Gurugram Police Commissioner had got a call from Al Jazeera news channel and pressure is being created on her to act against Hindus.
Kumar went on to claim that after getting the call, the Gurugram Police chief came under so much pressure that she initiated a crackdown on the workers of Hindutva outfits.
The FIR comes days after communal clashes rocked Nuh and Gurugram districts on July 31, in an attempt to stop a VHP possession.
The violence prompted the government to clamp curfew and suspend mobile internet services in Nuh, Palwal, Hodal and Sohna. (Agency)
