"Had you been a man I would have held you by the collar," MP Congress' MLA publicly threatens SDM

Congress MLA, Harsh Vijay Gehlot publicly threatened Sub-Divisional Magistrate Kamini Thakur on Sunday in Ratlam district of Madhya Pradesh.

A video clip of the incident is viral on social media in which the Congress MLA can be seen arguing over a memorandum, repeatedly saying that he is a legislator, and then talking aggressively with SDM. He can be heard saying, "You are a woman, had you been a man I would have held you by the collar and then handed the memo to you."

The Congress had taken out a tractor rally in support of the farmers protesting against the Centre’s farm laws in Ratlam district’s Sailana town. Following the rally, a crowd led by the MLA had gone to the SDM’s office to submit a memorandum. The officer took time to step out of the office, after which the two argued and Gehlot threatened her.

The Madhya Pradesh Congress unit ran into a controversy recently when one MLA questioned on increasing the minimum age of marriage for girls.
