Jaipur: An independent candidate from Rajasthan’s Deoli-Uniara constituency was captured on video slapping a Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM) at a polling booth.
The incident took place at Samravata polling station. The video shows the independent candidate Naresh Meena walking into the polling booth, slapping SDM Amit Choudhary who was on duty to oversee election protocol before being restrained by police.
Meena, a former Congress leader, was recently suspended by the party for contesting as an independent after it nominated Kastor Chand Meena over him for the Deoli-Uniara by-election. Backed by the Bharat Adivasi Party, Meena’s decision to run independently stirred concerns over potential vote splits in the by-polls.
“The SDM posted here used three of his people and made them vote,” Meena alleged as reported by NDTV. “Now the entire police force is here and has surrounded us. I would request people to go out and reply with their votes. Hit them with votes.”
