LIVE! Cong MLA tries to kiss Nagma, party yet to take action

March 25, 2014 13:53

The Congress has not taken any action against a legislator who was caught on camera manhandling party candidate Nagma in Uttar Pradesh on Sunday.

The actor-turned-politician was campaigning in Hapur when the area legislator, Gajraj Singh, grabbed her face and reportedly kissed her. Nagma angrily broke free and walked off.

Hapur is a part of the Meerut constituency from where Nagma is contesting next month's national election.

The candidate had reportedly gone there to inaugurate a party office and visit a gurdwara.Though the visuals have been seen on various channels and websites, neither Nagma, nor the Congress have acknowledged them. Nagma has denied the incident.

"Nothing like this has happened. These are all lies. How are such lies being spread?" -- NDTV
