Kamlesh Thakur allegedly abused two on-duty sub- inspectors G S Malviya and Anil Rai during a verbal altercation last night in 10 No Market area of the city, said Habibganj police station in-charge Ravindra Yadav.
Thakur was creating nuisance in public and when the men in uniform intervened, he abused them, Yadav said.
Yadav said Thakur, a Bajrang Dal activist, was brought to the police station by a few other cops present at the spot and was allowed to go after initial questioning.
He was booked under relevant sections of the IPC for preventing public servant from discharging his duty.
There were reports that a group of Bajrang Dal activists staged a protest outside the Habibganj police station after Thakur was detained, but Yadav denied any such incident.
