Court Orders FIR Against MLA Bal Mukundacharya in Assault Case: Accused of Spitting and Kicking Dalit's Chest
Mukundacharya had won the Hawa Mahal seat by defeating Congress candidate RR Tiwari by a thin margin of 974 votes. He went around his constituency shutting down shops selling non-vegetarian food a day after being elected and later apologised for his actions after people complained about him to the National Human Rights Commission.
