Karnataka BJP MLA Arvind Limbavali became the centre of a controversy on Saturday, 3 September, after a video came to light where he was seen threatening a woman activist in Bengaluru, telling her that he will get her booted into prison.
The MLA verbally abused the activist, Ruth Sagar Mary, who also works for the Congress party, and misbehaved when she approached him and asked him to look at the complaint letter relating to land encroachment in Mahadevapura constituency.
"MLA Limbavali has instructed the police to boot me out into the prison repeatedly. He told me, do you have any respect and honuor? You encroach the land and now you come in front of the MLA. He also asked the police to drag me to the police station and made me sit there," Mary stated.
