A Rajput outfit condemned SP MP Ramji Lal Suman's negative remarks about Rana Sanga, protesting at the party office in Bhopal. Effigies were burnt, and accusations were exchanged between political activists, leading to police intervention. The confrontation highlighted underlying political tensions and historical sensitivities.

A clash erupted at the Samajwadi Party office in Bhopal as a Rajput outfit voiced its outrage over derogatory comments made by a party MP against the legendary Mewar king, Rana Sanga. The incident took place on Tuesday, sparking heightened political tension.

MP Ramji Lal Suman drew the ire of Rajput Mahapanchayat members after labeling Rana Sanga as a 'traitor' in the Rajya Sabha. In response, activists burned effigies of SP chief Akhilesh Yadav and Suman, demanding apologies and respect for the historical figure.

The protests further escalated as the demonstrators and party activists faced off over a poster celebrating Rana Sanga's victories. Despite police intervention, accusations flew, with SP alleging BJP's complicity in protecting the protesters, pointing to a charged political backdrop.
