The BJP has now hit back, saying the chief minister has insulted people from UP and Bihar. The BJP said Priyanka Gandhi has insulted the people of UP where the Congress is fighting the polls.

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal also slammed Channi’s reported remark. He said, “It is very shameful. We strongly condemn comments aimed at any individual or any particular community. Priyanka Gandhi also belongs to UP, so she is also a bhaiya.”

His CM candidature was announced by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi earlier this month following a tele-voting conducted by the party. He secured more votes than Punjab Congress president Navjot Singh Sidhu, who was pressing his nomination as the CM candidate for long.

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
