As the Chief Minister's convoy was making its way through the city after a meeting at the Collectorate Office, traffic police had blocked roads, including at the Indramani Nagar junction near MITS College. At the same time and in the same area, Major Ashish Chauhan’s car was hit by another car, while he was out with his wife, sister and a friend.

The driver of the other car tried to flee, which led Major Chauhan to pursue him. However, when a traffic police officer intervened, the Major and the officer ended-up into a conflict, which soon turned violent.

Major’s wife alleged misbehaviour 

The situation escalated quickly, drawing the attention of a passing Crime Branch police vehicle. The officers intervened and took Major Chauhan to the Gola Ka Mandir police station. The chaos made senior police officials arrive at the scene, where both parties were brought to the station for further inquiry.
