Jagtial MLA Faces Political Attention Over Scarf Incident

Jagtial MLA Dr Sanjay Kumar found himself in the spotlight amid speculation of political defection after a BRS activist attempted to place a party scarf on him at a public meeting. The activist had arrived at the venue in advance, reportedly to test the MLA’s political allegiance. Police intervened and shifted the activist to a local police station to avoid disruption. Later, the activist questioned why placing the scarf should be objected to if the MLA had not left the party. The incident has triggered fresh political discussion in the region, though no official defection has been announced.
