Kota: In what is likely to cause a big embarrassment to the ruling BJP in Rajasthan, the husband of one of its MLAs was caught on camera thrashing a police officer for imposing a fine on one of his supporters for traffic violation.

According to reports, Naresh Meghwal, the husband of BJP lawmaker Chandra Kanta Meghwal barged into a police station with his supporters and entered into an ugly brawl with police officers for allegedly imposing hefty fine on a BJP worker.

Naresh Meghwa and his supporters were recorded on camera shouting and thrashing four policemen, who were later transferred after the incident.
