Indore: A video purportedly showing BJP general secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya threatening government officials went viral on social media here on Friday.
In the video, apparently shot during a protest organised by the BJP in Residency area here on Friday afternoon, showed Vijayvargiya saying, “Our Sangh (RSS) leaders are (here), otherwise (we) would have set Indore on fire today.”
RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat and other senior leaders are in the city since Thursday for an internal conclave of the organisation. The BJP had organised the protest alleging that city officials were biased and taking “politically motivated” action against party.
They had invited top civic and police officials for discussing this issue at the venue of protest, but senior officials did not turn up. Later, when some junior-level officials reached the spot, Vijayvargiya was peeved.
In the video, the BJP leader is heard saying, “Have they (top officers) become so big? The officers should understand that they are public servants.” An official is heard telling the BJP general secretary that he had no information about BJP leaders’ invite to top officials. (PTI)
