Unrest broke out at BJP leader and former MP Navneet Rana’s rally in Maharashtra’s Amravati last night. A mob attacked a rally, throwing chairs and shouting threatening slogans. The police have registered a case and urged people not to spread rumours.
Supporters surrounded Rana as a group threw chairs at her rally in Khallar village, according to videos circulating online. In one clip, she walked toward the crowd, apparently telling them to leave, before they started throwing chairs at her. Her security team quickly intervened to shield her.
BJP leader Navneet Rana visited Khallar village on Thursday to campaign for Ramesh Bundile, the BJP candidate from Daryapur Assembly constituency, when a dispute erupted between two groups. Inspector Kiran Wankhade of the Crime Branch Rural Amravati confirmed, “A dispute broke out during the rally, and we have registered a case based on Navneet Rana’s complaint,” Wankhade said.
