Morphed, says BJP

The Congress has demanded the suspension of the MLA.

The BJP and the lawmaker, however, claimed that the video had been morphed and the MLA had resolved the water woes of the women.

Mr. Kishna Ram is three-time MLA and has held the district president post four times.

Dismisses charges

District president of the Congress’ rural wing, Shashikala Rathore, condemned the MLA’s conduct with the women.

She said video was not morphed and she would present a memorandum to Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje seeking his suspension.

The MLA said he directed Public Health Engineering Department officials to solve the problems of the women at the earliest and dismissed allegations of foul language.
