Bhopal: A political controversy has erupted in Shivpuri district after BJP MLA from Pichhore constituency, Pritam Lodhi, was seen in a video allegedly warning Karera SDOP Ayush Jakhar over police action in an accident case involving his son.In the video that went viral on Sunday evening, Lodhi is reportedly objecting to the questioning of his son Dinesh Lodhi and his comments about his non-appearance in Carrera. He is reportedly heard accusing the officer of crossing limits and saying that officers should act within the ambit of the law. The MLA also reportedly accused the police of selective action and claimed that some cases remain pending for years while his son’s case was “highlighted”.It is seen in the viral video that the police officer is saying that proper procedure was followed. The SDOP is reportedly saying that the action was taken as per rules, which included questioning, issuing challans and canceling driving licenses for violations like use of black film and hooters.In the clip, he is also heard saying to the officer, “What will happen to your daddy…he will come, he will fight elections too…if daddy has the power then stop him.”The controversy stems from the April 16 incident in Shivpuri district, in which an SUV allegedly driven by the MLA’s son hit five people within Karera police station limits, injuring five.
