The Congress leader termed the raid as a harassment of the Tribal MLA Nilesh Uikey, who represents Pandhurna (ST) assembly seat in Chhindwara.

"This is harassment of the tribal MLA by the BJP and  this shows its dictatorial attitude," said Patwari. The MLA, meanwhile, said that police and an excise team ‘raided’ his house and agricultural fields around 4 pm on Sunday following a complaint of hoarding cash and liquor but they found nothing.
