Sena MLA Slaps Canteen Staff Member Over Food Quality. Will He Be Arrested?
Sanjay Gaikwad, an MLA of the Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena, has made headlines after a video of him assaulting a staff member of the MLA canteen in Mumbai went viral. The MLA from Buldhana slapped and punched the canteen staffer, Yogesh Kutram. The lawmaker later told NDTV that he does not regret what he did and that his earlier complaints about the food quality fell on deaf ears. The viral video came up in the Maharashtra Council today. Responding to the Opposition's questions, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said such conduct by an MLA undermines the House's decorum and urged the Chair to take necessary action against the MLA, who is from the ruling alliance. Why is there a free run to the goons in Maharashtra?
