Betul: A case has been registered in Betul district of Madhya Pradesh against the secretary of the Maharashtra State Kisan Mahasabha, Arun Bankar for threatening to eradicate Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) Chief Mohan Bhagwat and blow up the Sangh headquarter in Nagpur. The Kotwali police has registered a case on a complaint filed by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) District President Aditya Babla Shukla.
Santosh Pandre, Kotwali police station in charge, mentioned that Shukla has lodged a complaint against Arun Bankar, claiming that Bankar has openly issued threats saying that if Prime Minister Narendra Modi orders police firing on the farmers, then he would blow up the RSS headquarters and kill Mohan Bhagwat. A case has been registered on the basis of this complaint. An alleged video of Bankar generating the controversial statement has gone viral on social media.
Pandre mentioned that when going from Nagpur in Maharashtra to Delhi on Monday, a group of farmers stopped at the ‘Shaheed Kisan Stambh’ in Multai exactly where Arun Bankar reportedly mentioned that the Maharashtra farmers are going to Delhi to teach Modi a lesson. “If the Union farm laws are not repealed, we (farmers) will commit suicide and if Modi dares to shoot the farmers, we will eliminate Mohan Bhagwat in Nagpur and blow up the RSS headquarters there.”
BJP leader Aditya Babla Shukla retorted to Bankar’s statement, saying that the talks amongst the farmers union leaders and the Central government are taking location in a peaceful atmosphere. Only such a farmer leader is spoiling the atmosphere, openly threatening to kill Mohan Bhagwat and bomb the RSS workplace. Such statements ought to be investigated, that is why a case has been registered against Bankar in Kotwali. Also such farmer organisations ought to be investigated to ascertain exactly where they are getting explosives and bombs from.
