Kailash Vijayvargiya defends son accused of thrashing civic official

Senior BJP leader Kailash Vijayvargiya has defended his son Akash Vijayvargiya, MLA from Indore who was arrested for beating up a civic body official, saying it was not a big issue.

Akash Vijayvargiya was released on bail on Sunday morning and welcomed with flowers and garlands by his supporters and relatives. “Both Akash and IMC commissioner are novices and they mishandled the situation. The officers shouldn't behave arrogantly with public representatives. They (Akash and IMC commissioner) need to learn a lot and should increase their understanding to prevent recurrence of such an incident,” Kailash said on Monday.
