Photo of a pre-wedding photo shoot featuring a couple sitting in the state chopper used by Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel went viral on social media. Chhattisgarh civil aviation department suspended a driver allegedly involved in the photo shoot after the photographs circulated online. It has been alleged that the guy featured in the chopper is a relative of the present state BJP chief.
Responding to it, State Congress spokesperson, Vikas Tiwari on Monday wrote a letter addressing the Chhattisgarh Director General of Police (DGP) DM Awasthi demanding thorough investigation and strict action into the case.
“The room in the state hanger was used as a changing room and several photos and videos were taken during the pre-wedding shoot. It is a major lapse in Chief Minister’s security which should be seriously investigated,” Vikas Tiwari said.
Meanwhile, police sources informed that a few days back a young couple hailing from Jashpur had reached Raipur and got photographed at a state hanger in the state chopper “AW 109 Power Elite” Police lines.
Sources informed the guy in the pre wedding shoot is a member of BJP, ex-elected member of Food Corporation of India and distant relative of State BJP President Vishnu Dev Sai.
