Girish Mahajan news

Maharashtra minister and BJP neta Girish Mahajan got a taste of the Mumbaikar’s ‘acrosh’ during Tuesday’s rally when the irate woman confronted the minister and shouted at him for blocking roads and causing inconvenience to commuters. “Get out of here. You’re causing a traffic jam,” he said.
The woman was going to pick up her child from school. However, he was stuck in traffic for several hours due to the BJP’s rally. Frustrated by the standoff, he got out of his vehicle, walked towards the middle of the march and got into a heated argument with Maharashtra minister Girish Mahajan.

While the minister was trying to calm her down, the woman returned and said, “Don’t you understand? What’s your problem? Hundreds of people are waiting.” He continued his tirade.
A visibly disappointed woman asked why the rally couldn’t be held in a nearby open field instead of blocking vehicular movement.
When a police officer stepped in, he reacted violently, refusing to intervene and insisting that no one talk to him. The incident, caught on camera, quickly went viral and sparked widespread criticism of the Bharatiya Janata Party’s protest tactics.

Girish Mahajan was addressing reporters at a rally organized to target opposition parties over the defeat of the Constitution amendment bill in the Lok Sabha, which was aimed at expediting the implementation of 33 per cent reservation for women in legislative bodies.

Political reactions

Maharashtra Congress president Harshwardhan Sapkal shared the clip, claiming that it reveals the “true face” of the ruling party’s reservation campaign for women.
She accused the BJP of misleading women for political gain and using the issue to spread a “false narrative”.

Sapkal also claimed that the opposition alliance had already blocked what he described as an attempt by the BJP to change the constitution and electoral processes under the guise of reservations, adding that the party was now turning to rallies and propaganda to revive the issue.

Former state Congress president Nana Patole also shared the video and alleged that ordinary citizens were being harassed due to the “drama” of the BJP. He added that the woman’s outburst reflected growing public disillusionment and claimed that women across the country would similarly reject the BJP in the future.
