VADODARA: Controversy and Waghodiya MLA Madhu Shrivastava go hand in hand. On Tuesday, he landed in a row over the viral video of a speech he gave at an event in Padra.
Shrivastava was speaking at the event to mark distribution of free grains under the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana. Other BJP members were also present at the event. Towards the end of his speech, Shrivastava said that if officials did not do justify works for people he will not hesitate to fix them.
Sources, however, said that the threat was not directed at any specific official or issue. “It was more of a rhetoric and not targeting someone,” said a BJP functionary from Padra.
Shrivastava has landed in trouble over similar recordings earlier too.
