Bemetara: The car of Arang MLA and Satnami community leader, Guru Khushwant Saheb, was damaged on the Charbhata-Bhoinabhata bypass road of Chhattishgarh's Bemetara district on Saturday night. According to police officials, the incident happened due to the falling of an electricity pole on the roadside, as Chinese stones on the pole can be seen on the damaged windshield of the vehicle.
Guru Bal Das Saheb, the MLA's father, inspected the spot and sought information about the entire incident. Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Ramkrishna Sahu and a large number of community members were also present with him.

"The police are saying that it was caused by the falling of an electric pole. I do not consider it an ordinary accident. This is not just an attack on Guru Khushwant, but on the entire Satnami community. I want the police to identify and arrest the culprits in 24 hours. I have good relations with every community, every religion, and every class in Chhattisgarh. Then, who is the enemy of my son? I will also discuss it with the Chief Minister on the security arrangements," Guru Bal Das Saheb said.

आखिर इस प्रदेश की सुरक्षा व्यवस्था को ना जाने किसकी नजर लग गई।
ना जनता सुरक्षित है ना नेता मंत्री।

Taking a dig at the BJP government, Congress state president Deepak Baij said, "An attack has occurred on the convoy of Arang MLA Guru Khushwant Sahab. I pray for his well-being. What has happened to the security system of this state? Who knows whose evil eye has struck it? Neither the public nor the leaders and ministers. One responsible person is engrossed in serving Adani, while another is busy collecting donations."

Congress MLA Devendra Yadav took a dig at Home Minister Vijay Sharma. "If even MLAs are not safe in Chhattisgarh state, what will be the condition of the common people? The Home Minister has become a 'reel minister' these days. He comes in reels to explain to the people. But he should come out of the reel to the field," he said.
