'Will set the entire Jabalpur Mandi on fire,' Congress leader seen threatening MP policemen in new video

Bhopal: After Karera MLA Shakuntala Khatik, another Congress leader has been caught on camera threatening to set the entire Mandi on fire in the Jabalpur district of Madhya Pradesh.

The video has been posted by Delhi BJP spokesperson  Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga who had earlier posted the brief video of Karera Congress MLA inciting the mob to burn the police station.

In the latest video posted by Bagga, Congress leader Sachin Yadav can be seen threatening the policeman in Jabalpur that he will set the entire Mandi on fire.

The latest video from Bagga came at a time when the authorities today registered an FIR against Karera Congress MLA Shakuntala Khatik who was caught on camera inciting a mob to set on fire a police station in protest against killing of five farmers in police firing in Mandsaur.

According to ANI, along with Khatik, one more person 'Venus Goyal' has also been booked by the Karera police station for inciting mob under various sections.

Bagga had on Friday posted a video which showed the Congress lawmaker urging her supporters to burn a local police station in Madhya Pradesh.

The Congress MLA in question - Shakuntala Khatik - represents the Karera Constituency in the Shivpuri district. 

In the video, she is surrounded by her supporters and local residents and can be seen instigating them to burn the local police station.

The MLA was leading a protest march during which his supporters burnt the effigy of CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan over the recent killing of farmers in police firing in Mandsaur.

In a bid to douse the fire, local police party poured water on the effigy during which the MLA was partially drenched.

Irked with this, the lawmaker sat on a protest and clashed with the policemen.

With the incident getting media attention, the Congress lawmaker later denied any wrongdoing and even blamed the police for misbehaving with her.

Reacting to the incident, BJP leader Nitesh Bajpai said the incident shows the dirty politics of Congress in the state.  

Bagga, who had posted the brief video, also termed the incident as ''shameful''.
