Kannauj (Uttar Pradesh):In a video that has now gone viral on social media, BJP MLA from Uttar Pradesh's Tirwa constituency, Kailash Singh Rajput, is purportedly seen hurling expletives at the staff of a fuel station.
In the video, the legislator can be seen verbally abusing the staff and even the owner of the petrol bunk, threatening to shut the place down. The MLA almost goes on to physically assault a man, before he is stopped by another person.
Explaining his side of the story, the legislator said that the incident took place on June 22, when he was returning from Kanpur. At around 9-10 pm, his driver stopped at a bunk in Tirwa to refuel.
However, the legislator accused the petrol bunk of fraud, claiming that even though the meter started running, there was no fuel coming out of the pipe.
