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, the policeman was sent to disperse the group that had gathered in the area. When he tried to do so, the BJP leader, Hanumanta Gowda, allegedly abused him. This led to Gadilingappa slapping Gowda, following which Gowda retaliated by slapping the policeman back.
The video, which has gone viral on social media, shows the two men engaged in a heated argument and physical altercation. The policeman and the BJP leader are seen shouting at each other, with the policeman attempting to push Gowda away. Gowda, however, refuses to back down and the two men end up slapping each other.
The incident has raised concerns about the growing incidence of violence and lack of decorum in public life. It is unfortunate that a public servant, who is expected to maintain law and order, was involved in a physical altercation with a political leader.
The police have registered a case against Gowda under sections 353 (assault or criminal force to deter public servant from discharge of his duty) and 504 (intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace) of the Indian Penal Code.
This is not the first time that a political leader has been involved in a controversy in Karnataka. The state has seen its fair share of political scandals and controversies in recent years, with leaders from various parties being accused of corruption and other offenses.
The incident has also raised questions about the role of political leaders in society. Political leaders are expected to set an example for their followers and maintain a high level of decorum and dignity. However, it appears that some leaders are more interested in gaining publicity and attention than in serving the people.
The police have launched an investigation into the incident and are collecting evidence to build a strong case against Gowda. The BJP has distanced itself from the incident, saying that Gowda’s actions were “unacceptable” and that he would face the consequences of his actions.
In a statement, the party said, “We condemn the actions of Hanumanta Gowda, which are unacceptable and unbecoming of a public representative. We will take strict action against him and ensure that he is punished for his actions.”
