People’s representatives must behave with restraint: Fadnavis
The HinduPeople’s representatives must behave with restraint and work within the framework of law, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister and Bharatiya Janata Party leader Devendra Fadnavis said on Wednesday after a BJP MLA from Thane district slapped a junior civil engineer working for the Mira-Bhayandar Municipal Corporation. On Tuesday, Geeta Jain, a first-time BJP legislator from the Mira-Bhayander constituency, had assaulted a junior engineer working on a contractual basis with the MBMC over an issue of allegedly razing an “illegal structure”. “Public representatives must behave with restraint and act within legal limits…while it is possible that one may get angry over some issue. A three-term corporator of the MBMC, Ms. Jain, a former BJP Mayor, won the 2019 Maharashtra Assembly election as an Independent, following which she extended support to the Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena.
