(Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Maurya’s nephew brutally thrashed a truck driver in Allahabad. The driver from the Sikh community asked him (the nephew) to beat him as much as he wants but not open his turban. But the minister, drunk in power, dragged the man by his hair.)”
The video is viral on Twitter and Facebook.

According to a website dailysikhupdates.com, Gupta was caught by the police and charged under sections 341, 323, 295, 307 and attempt to murder of the IPC. The victim underwent medical treatment and appeared to be recovering well.
