Union Minister and senior BJP leader Nitin Gadkari’s car was gheraoed in the Tandapeth area of the city on the eve of the Nagpur Municipal Corporation elections.

The incident took place on Monday evening when the Minister, accompanied by the city unit BJP president Vikas Kumbhare, went to meet a party worker at his residence.

While Mr. Gadkari was inside the house of the worker, the members of the crowd raised slogans against him claiming he had failed to resolve certain issues.

In the meantime, Mr. Gadkari managed to leave the house.

Mr. Kumbhare alleged that those who raised the slogans were Congress workers.

“In response to sloganeering, the BJP workers also raised slogans,” he said.
