“You will urinate in your pants if I slap you”: BJP MLA's shocking threat to govt official

Jaipur, Oct 25: BJP MLA from Rajasthan, Bhawani Singh Rajawat, has once again hit the headlines for wrong reasons. Known for making foot in the mouth remarks, Rajawat has now allegedly abused and threatened to slap a government official over delay in procurement of lentils during a visit to a mandi on Wednesday.

"If I slap you, you will urinate in your pants," Rajawat told deputy registrar of Rajasthan State Co-operative Marketing Federation Limited (RAJFED) Ajay Singh Panwar, as per a PTI report.

Rajawat was visiting the Bhamashah Mandi to take stock of procurement of urad dal. He allegedly lost his temper after the farmers said there were irregularities in the process. He then summoned the concerned officials. When Panwar reached the mandi, the BJP MLA was angry that he had been kept waiting.

In a video of the incident, Rajawat is seen threatening to slap Panwar. The MLA said of the 1,11,000 quintals of Urad that had reached the mandi, only 100 quintals had been procured so far. He directed the officials to speed up the process.

Later, speaking to the media, Rajawat said he scolded Panwar as the farmers are incurring heavy losses due to the officials' callousness. "I will continue to raise my voice for farmers," he said.

Rajawat, who is not new to controversies, had last year said that Bihari students should not be allowed to Kota as they spread crime

Post demonetisation, a video of the Kota MLA had surfaced in which he was heard saying that 'Adani and Ambani' were aware of the note ban beforehand.
