Son of SP MLA booked for threatening BDC member

A newly elected woman BDC member has lodged an FIR accusing the son of a Samajwadi Party MLA of threatening her against contesting the upcoming Block Pramukh election.
Sunita Yadav lodged an FIR at the Tindwari police station against Vivek Singh, son of SP MLA from Baberu, Vishambar Singh Yadav, yesterday alleging that he along with a relative barged into her house in Mungesh village on Monday night, Circle Officer Prabhat Kumar said today.
