Policeman & BJP Leader Slap Each Other Amid Argument in K’taka, Video Emerges
In a shocking incident, a video has surfaced 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 gathered in Chitradurga district around midnight on Friday.
According to reports, Gadilingappa, a Sub-Inspector, was on patrol duty when he came across a group of people gathered at a spot. He went to disperse the crowd, but BJP leader Hanumanta Gowda, who was part of the group, allegedly abused him. This prompted Gadilingappa to slap Gowda, following which the BJP leader retaliated by slapping the policeman back.
The altercation was captured on camera, and the video has gone viral on social media. In the video, both Gadilingappa and Gowda are seen slapping each other in a heated argument. The incident took place around midnight on Friday in Chitradurga district of Karnataka.
The police have registered a case against Gowda for assaulting the Sub-Inspector. An investigation is underway to gather more information about the incident. Gadilingappa has been taken to a hospital for treatment of minor injuries.
The Karnataka Police have issued a statement condemning the incident and promising to take strict action against those involved. “We strongly condemn the incident and assure that appropriate action will be taken against the accused,” said a police spokesperson.
This is not the first time that a public figure has been involved in a physical altercation with a policeman. In recent years, there have been several instances of politicians and other public figures getting into physical fights with law enforcement officials.
The BJP leader, Hanumanta Gowda, has been a vocal critic of the government and has been involved in several controversies in the past. His supporters claim that he was acting in self-defense, while the police maintain that he was the one who instigated the fight.
The incident has sparked widespread outrage and condemnation from various quarters. Many have criticized the BJP leader for his behavior and called for him to be held accountable for his actions.
The Congress party, the main opposition party in Karnataka, has demanded that the state government take strict action against Gowda and ensure that justice is served. “This is a clear example of the BJP’s culture of violence and intolerance,” said a Congress spokesperson.
The incident has also raised questions about the role of police in maintaining law and order. Many have criticized the police for not intervening in time to prevent the fight from escalating.
In conclusion, the incident between the policeman and the BJP leader is a shocking example of the growing culture of violence and intolerance in our society. It is essential that those involved are held accountable for their actions and that measures are taken to prevent such incidents in the future.
