A Bharatiya Janata Party MLA from Fatehpur Sikri assembly constituency of Uttar Pradesh has stirred a controversy after a video in which he can be seen threatening a Sub Divisional Magistrate in public went viral on social media.
"You don't know how powerful I am, I am an MLA," BJP MLA Chaudhary Uday Bhan Singh is seen threatening Kiraoli SDM Garima Singh in the video.
Chaudhary had gone to Agra to meet the SDM over issues faced by farmers demanding compensation over loss of crops due to a hailstorm earlier this year in April.
District magistrate N.G. Ravi Kumar told mediapersons that an inquiry has been ordered. ADM administration Nidhi Srivastav will conduct the inquiry and submit a report soon.
