In a viral video on the social media, Former Union Minister Uma Bharati can be seen vandalize a liquor shop. She pelted a stone and smashed the bottles in the wine shop.
In a series of tweets, Bharti warned the local administration to shut down the store within a week. However, there was no response from the administration. Hence, she personally went to vandalize the liquor shop.
Earlier, she tweeted that the slum-dwellers residing in Barkheda Paitani Azad Nagar, BHEL Bhopal are spending all their hard-earned money on alcohol. Ms. Bharti blamed the wine shops for serving alcohol to the slum dwellers.
