Workers of Congress and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) came face-to-face in Mahal on Sunday. However, police personnel deployed at the spot managed the agitating workers and cooled them down.
DCP (Zone III) Lohit Matani informed that Congress corporator and Youth Congress leader Bunty Shelke took out a rally ‘Sangh Se Sansad Tak’ in the morning hours. The route was pre-decided but Shelke suddenly took a decision to visit Ganpati temple. However, police personnel deployed on the route blocked the Congress workers, DCP Matani said. Meanwhile, workers of BJP gathered near the spot and both sides launched slognerring against each other. Later, the police pacified the agitating workers of both parties.
In a press statement Bunty Shelke said that the rally was started from Gandhi Gate Mahal and BJP workers blocked the road when he was going to seek blessings at Ganpati temple. He alleged that the BJP workers did not respond to the police. When the rally came to Badkas Chowk, the BJP workers again tried to block the road. The rally was welcomed at various places in the city, he further added.
BJP’s Spokesperson Chandan Goswami, in a press statement, alleged that Shelke keeps trying new tricks to prove himself as a leader. “He had also burnt the RSS' cap a few years ago,” he alleged. RSS is a social organisation, but Shelke used to target it. On Sunday, the BJYM workers sensed that Shelke would do something to get publicity. The workers went to convince Shelke that RSS is a social organisation and he should protest at Samvidhan Chowk and not near RSS HQ, Goswami said.

KM Mallikarjuna Prasanna, Special Inspector General of Police of Nagpur Range, still continues to work with the same pride, wearing his patriotism on the sleeve. “Had they (Americans) deployed their personnel for area security, then the message would have been Indians are unable to protect VIPs in their nation,” recounted Prasanna on the episode that is one of the highlights of his distinguished career of a skillful investigator. The story of the IPS officer of 2000 batch is worth a film. In fact, a movie (Nagarjun-starrer ‘Officer’) has already been made by Ram Gopal Verma last year. His real life script als...
