Use of Abusive Language with Officials
Naresh Meena not only slapped the SDM, but also misbehaved with the officials present at the booth. Additional SP Brijendra Singh Bhati was also present on the spot.
Congress has fielded Kastur Chand Meena, while BJP has made Rajendra Gurjar its candidate. Naresh Meena, who was seeking a ticket from Congress on the seat vacated due to MP Harish Meena, is now contesting the election as an independent after not getting a ticket from the party.
Congress Party has Already Suspended Naresh Meena
After Naresh Meena announced his candidature, Congress suspended him from the party.
State Congress in-charge Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa issued the suspension order due to anti-party activities.
