There is no doubt that we all have grown up watching some iconic Bollywood movies. And some of us have even re-enacted our favourite scenes when no one was watching but this female politician proved that she is a true fan of the movie 1970 blockbuster Sholay. Chandrakanta Meghwal, BJP’s woman MLA pulled a Veeru to protest against cops’ inaction over burglary incidents. Looks like she is a rebel with a cause.

In the Bundi district, BJP Women’s MLA Chandrakanta Meghwal reminded us of the famous water-tank sequence featuring veteran actor Dharmendra from the film Sholay as she climbed atop a water tank to draw public attention to the Rajasthan Police’s failure to arrest robbers. The woman legislator from Keshoraipatan constituency scaled the stairs of the tank with a few local party leaders in Kapren town demanding the arrest of the robbers who committed a burglary in an ornament shop in the town in October and decamped with the booty worth Rs.20 lakh. According to the reports, the protest on the water tank went on for more than 10 hours.

Furthermore, he added that the police have assured the MLA and all the party leaders that an investigation into the theft case is underway and they are also anticipating the arrest of the culprit soon.
