BJP MLA’s Son Shoots Tribal Man Days After CM Chouhan Washed A Man’s Feet From Their Community

The son of Ramlallu Vaish, a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA from Madhya Pradesh, allegedly shot a tribal man named Surya Prakash Khairbar in Singrauli district. The accused individual, identified as Vivek Vaish, reportedly engaged in an argument that escalated into violence as he was getting into a car. During the heated exchange, Vivek fired a shot, hitting Khairbar’s hand. Singrauli’s Superintendent of Police, Mohammad Yusuf Quarashi, confirmed these details and indicated that appropriate sections of the Indian Penal Code have been applied in the registered case.

In a separate incident earlier in July, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan made headlines when he publicly expressed regret for an incident involving a tribal youth named Dashmat Rawat. Chouhan invited Rawat to his residence in Bhopal and performed a symbolic foot-washing ceremony as a gesture of apology. This action was in response to a video from three months prior, in which Pravesh Shukla, allegedly associated with the BJP, had urinated on Rawat in Siddhi district. The video had recently gone viral, causing significant controversy in the state’s political arena.

The opposition Congress party criticized the ruling BJP, claiming that Shukla, the primary person involved in the incident, was connected to the BJP and associated with Siddhi MLA Kedarnath Shukla. However, the BJP distanced itself from the accused individual and refuted any claims that he was a party member.
