Pune. A case of throwing of mike (Bluetooth lapel microphone) towards Nationalist Congress Party President Sharad Pawar while he was addressing a public meeting on Friday in a rural area of Baramati Lok Sabha constituency in Pune has come to light, however, the security personnel stopped it. Succeeded in.
The video of the incident is going viral on social media in which a security personnel is seen standing close to the senior opposition leader. He is staring angrily at the person who tossed the microphone. Pawar was addressing the gathering at the time of the incident.
8 Union Ministers, 2 former CMs, one former Governor… In the first phase, the fate of these VVIP leaders is captured in EVM.
A police officer said about the incident, ‘When Sharad Pawar was addressing a meeting, an object was thrown at him, however we found that it was done by a local reporter, who was recording the speech. Wanted to increase the quality. We talked to the reporter.
The officer said there was no security lapse or malicious intent behind the incident but ideally the reporter should have handed over the mic to someone present on the stage instead of throwing it away. In Baramati, Pawar’s daughter and sitting MP Supriya Sule is contesting against Sunetra Pawar, wife of Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar.
