Maharashtra Minority Development Minister Abdul Sattar faced criticism from the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) after a video surfaced of him allegedly ordering the police to use force against guests at his birthday celebration. In the video, Sattar is heard instructing the police to “beat them like dogs, so much that their buttock-bones are broken.”
The incident drew condemnation from MVA allies Congress and Shiv Sena-UBT. The opposition questioned Sattar’s language and behavior, with Congress stating that the minister was “unfit to be a Minister.” The controversy has sparked concerns about the misuse of police for private events, and the opposition is calling for accountability.
