Chhattisgarh Minister Lakhan Lal Dewangan faces backlash over remarks to protesting women

New Indian Express  

RAIPUR: Chhattisgarh's Commerce and Industry Minister, Lakhan Lal Dewangan, sparked controversy after a video surfaced showing him reprimanding a group of women protesting in his constituency, Korba. The women were demanding a waiver on loans totalling over Rs 110 crore, which they claimed had been fraudulently taken in their names by the now-defunct Floramax company. The protesters, who had been demonstrating for five days without resolution, resorted to a ‘chakka jam’ along the minister's route. The government and the administration are supporting you, but with such haughtiness, if persisted, then you will all be thrown out by the police.” Dewangan later denied using offensive language, claiming his words had been misquoted.
