Tension Erupts Over Calf’s Condition in Bhopal’s Kolar Road Area
Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Tension flared in the Kolar Road area on Sunday when members of a self-proclaimed Gau Rakshak Dal and a local family got into a scuffle over the condition of a calf. The incident took place at the residence of Saroj Trivedi in Vandana Nagar and ended with complaints being filed by both parties, prompting police to initiate an investigation.
According to reports, around four to five persons identifying themselves as members of Bajrang Dal and Gau Raksha arrived at Trivedi’s house, claiming that a calf on the premises was unwell. Trivedi denied the claim and insisted the calf was fine. The discussion quickly escalated into an argument, followed by verbal abuse and a physical altercation.
Following the incident, Saroj Trivedi submitted a written complaint at the Kolar Road police station. Meanwhile, Gau Rakshak members—Priyanshu Gupta, Rohit Balmik, and Abhishek Rajput—filed a counter-complaint. They alleged that they had come only to help the calf based on information received but were instead verbally abused and physically assaulted by the family.
Kolar police station in-charge Sanjay Soni confirmed that written complaints from both sides have been received. He added that legal action will be taken after a thorough investigation into the matter.
