Policeman & BJP Leader Slap Each Other Amid Argument in K’taka, Video Emerges
In a shocking incident that has left many stunned, a video has emerged showing an altercation between a Karnataka Police Sub-Inspector and a BJP leader, where the two men are seen slapping each other. The fight broke out after the policeman, identified as Gadilingappa, went to disperse a group that had gathered in Chitradurga district around midnight on Friday.
According to reports, the group had assembled to protest against the Karnataka government’s decision to introduce a new tax on petrol and diesel. However, the situation took a turn for the worse when Gadilingappa, who was sent to disperse the crowd, allegedly got into an argument with Hanumanta Gowda, a local BJP leader.
Gowda allegedly abused Gadilingappa, which prompted the policeman to slap him. However, instead of backing off, Gowda retaliated by slapping Gadilingappa back. The two men continued to exchange blows, with onlookers watching in shock.
The incident was captured on camera by a bystander, who happened to be filming the protest. The video has since gone viral on social media, with many expressing shock and outrage at the incident.
The Karnataka Police have since launched an investigation into the matter, and both Gadilingappa and Gowda have been booked for assault. The police have also suspended Gadilingappa pending an inquiry into the incident.
While the reasons behind the argument between Gadilingappa and Gowda are still unclear, many have questioned the behavior of both parties. “It is unacceptable for a policeman to slap a citizen, and it is equally unacceptable for a BJP leader to abuse a policeman,” said a local resident.
Others have criticized the BJP leader for his alleged abusive behavior, saying that he should have acted more responsibly. “As a leader of a political party, Gowda should have set a better example,” said a resident.
The incident has also sparked concerns about the state of law and order in Karnataka. “This is not the first time that police officers have been involved in altercations with citizens,” said a local activist. “The government needs to take steps to ensure that the police are held accountable for their actions.”
The incident has also sparked a debate about the role of police officers in society. “Police officers are meant to maintain law and order, but they are also human beings who can make mistakes,” said a police officer. “However, they should always act with professionalism and respect for the law.”
The incident is a wake-up call for both the police and the political parties to ensure that their actions are more responsible and respectful. As a society, we need to ensure that our leaders and those in positions of authority act with integrity and respect for the law.
In conclusion, the altercation between the Karnataka police sub-inspector and the BJP leader is a shocking reminder of the need for greater accountability and responsibility. We need to ensure that our leaders and those in positions of authority act with integrity and respect for the law. We also need to ensure that our police officers are held accountable for their actions, and that they act with professionalism and respect for the law.
