BJP mandal functionary accuses Pichhore MLA Pritam Lodhi of spreading terror, alleges assault

BJP MLA Pritam Lodhi of Pichhore in Shivpuri district is in the news once again. This time the reason is a functionary of his own party, Khod mandal general secretary Manoj Sagar, who has named the MLA and alleged that there is terror in the area.

A video of Manoj Sagar is being shared on social media. It was made at Pichhore police station. In it, he complains of an assault and demands action against the accused and justice for himself.

It is said that on Monday night Manoj Sagar was sitting at a friend's showroom when Ajju Lodhi and Shyam Lodhi allegedly assaulted him. After the incident, Manoj went to Pichhore police station with a complaint and made the video there while putting forward his side.

In the viral video, Manoj Sagar can be heard saying that MLA Pritam Lodhi's terror in the area is such that he was assaulted. He says he was not at fault. He had also asked those who attacked him about himself. Manoj claimed he has eyewitnesses to the incident.

Demanding punishment for the accused, he appears emotional in the video. He said that if his fault is proved, the public may punish him, but he should get justice. The allegations made in the video have not been independently verified.

Pichhore police station in-charge Neetu Singh Ahirwar said Manoj Sagar has given a written complaint and police are investigating the matter on that basis. According to her, the facts of the incident can become clear only after the investigation.

An attempt was made to contact MLA Pritam Lodhi by phone in this matter, but the call was not answered. His side could therefore not be obtained.
