The Assam BJP MLA (R) seen scolding the engineer in the video. ScreengrabMorigaon: A junior engineer in Assam's Nagaon district was allegedly forced to touch a BJP MLA's feet for removing the legislator's car that was blocking the road to the office, a BDO official said.
The incident recorded by TV news channels showed Jayanta Das, junior engineer of Kothiatoli Development Block in Nagaon district, touching Raha constituency MLA Dimbeswar Das' feet at the Block Development Office (BDO), the official said.
The MLA had gone on an inspection to the office on Thursday and the JE finding Das' car blocking the road to the office, got it removed from there, sources said.
The angered Das' supporters then informed the matter to him, they said.
The BJP MLA was seen in the video-clip scolding the engineer, who then touched Das' feet in apology.
Das, however, denied before the media later that the JE touched his feet in apology.
