Mayurbhanj district BJP president Krushna Chandra Mohapatra landed in a soup after a complaint accusing him of asking check-gate officials for money was filed against him with police on Monday.
Kulamani Bhoi, ACCTO of the inter-State check gate located at Jamsola, levelled the charge against the BJP leader and registered a written complaint at the Jhadapokharia police station.
In his complaint, Bhoi alleged that Mohapatra, along with some of his supporters, visited the check-gate office and asked the officials there for a huge amount of money.
When the officials refused to give them money, they thrashed them mercilessly, Bhoi alleged in his complaint. On the other hand, Mohapatra has filed a complaint that the check-gate officials misbehaved with him and his supporters.
