Losing his cool at reportes, Union minister Ajay Mishra on Wednesday, called them 바카라thieves바카라 and lunged at one of them when they questioned him on the October 3 Lakhimpur Kheri violence incident for which his son is among the accused.
The reporters also have submitted a memorandum accusing the Minister of State for Home Affairs of scuffling with them and snatching a reporter바카라s mobile phone.
The opposition has renewed its demand for the minister바카라s dismissal after a special investigation team (SIT) told a local court that the Lakhimpur Kheri violence in which eight people, including four farmers, were killed was a 바카라pre-planned conspiracy.바카라
The court on Tuesday also allowed the SIT to add the attempt to murder charge in the FIR against the minister바카라s son, Ashish Mishra, and 12 others booked in the case, replacing it with lesser charges.
A video clip purportedly shows the minister getting angry when asked about these developments by a reporter from a television news channel.
바카라Don't ask questions like a fool. Have you lost your mental balance ('Dimag kharab hai kya')?바카라 he is heard saying in Hindi. 바카라What do you want to know? You turned an innocent person into an accused. Aren바카라t you ashamed?바카라
He is also heard calling the media 바카라chor바카라, or thieves, and angrily asking a journalist to switch off his mobile phone.
The clip shows him moving aggressively towards a reporter.
The confrontation took place at a government health centre, 15 kilometres from the Lakhimpur Kheri district headquarters, where he had gone to inaugurate an oxygen plant.
The hospital falls in Mishra's Kheri parliamentary constituency, from where he has been elected twice.
In the brief interaction with reporters, the minister earlier took questions on the government efforts to contain the coronavirus pandemic.
A journalists바카라 delegation later submitted a memorandum to the district magistrate, addressing it to the President and seeking security for themselves and action against the minister.
