Gaikwad Assault: MLA, Aide Booked for Canteen Worker Beating
A non-cognizable report (NCR) has been filed against Maharashtra MLA Sanjay Gaikwad and one of his supporters. The action follows a widely circulated video showing the MLA assaulting a canteen worker.
The altercation allegedly stemmed from a complaint about stale food served at the canteen. The police initiated the NCR after the worker himself did not file a formal complaint.
The incident sparked public outrage and prompted authorities to suspend the canteen’s license. This move aims to address concerns about food safety and hygiene standards.
The case highlights the need for stricter regulations and accountability within the food service industry, particularly those serving public spaces. Further investigations are underway to ascertain the full extent of the incident and ensure justice for the affected worker. This incident raises questions about the conduct of elected officials and the safety of those serving them.
