Eknath Jadhav, Kalyan Dangode, Rajiv Dongre, Kailas Pawar, Mohan Aher and others were also present on the occasion.BoxxxxxxxxxxxxPolitical pressure on rural police?The concerned leaders claimed that for the shameful act, the MLA and others are booked under minor sections. They should have been booked under molestation. It may be noted that the MLA was booked after staging sitting agitation for eight hours. Later on, the rural police showed promptness in registering the Atrocity Case filed by MLA's secretary. The Vaijapur police have also not served notices to them in the last two days. When contacted the police inspector Samar Singh Rajput refused to comment on the issue.The State BJP vice president Chitra Wagh said," In the Chhatrapati Shivaji's Maharashtra, the Shiv Sena MLA has beat a woman for attending the BJP's programme. The case has been registered, but sans required action. Instead, the victim woman has been booked under the Atrocity Case. Why the policymakers on women are not speaking on the issue. To how many rapists and the accused exploiting women would be saved by the chief minister. The government is not for the poor people, but for the ministers, MLAs, MP and their followers."
