Disgruntled BJP ally SBSP’s chief Om Prakash Rajbhar has urged supporters to thrash ruling party workers with shoes if they spread misinformation, prompting the senior coalition partner to suggest that the EC should take note.
Last month, Rajbhar submitted his resignation from the Yogi Adityanath’s BJP-led ministry, but it is yet to be accepted.
He has also announced fielding Suheldev Bhartiya Samaj Part candidates from several constituencies in Uttar Pradesh.
Rajbahr is heard asking his party workers to beat the BJP workers in a video of his address to an election meeting earlier in Ghosi parliamentary constituency. The video has gone viral on social media.
