The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) expelled senior leader Babban Singh Raghuvanshi following the circulation of a video online that allegedly shows him engaging in lewd acts with a dancer at a public event.
The video, which was widely shared on social media, appeared to show Babban Singh Raghuvanshi, a former BJP candidate for Bansdih assembly, seated with a female dancer on his lap, engaging in what has been called “vulgar behavior.” The footage shows him groping the woman.
Raghuvanshi, 70, who also served as deputy chairman of the Kisan Cooperative Mill in Rasra, has vehemently denied the allegations, claiming the video is doctored and part of an internal party conspiracy.
“This is a deliberate conspiracy to malign my image. The video is fabricated. Members of MLA Ketakee Singh’s family are behind this,” he said, accusing the family of the current BJP MLA from Bansdih, Ketakee Singh, of orchestrating the video’s release.
He alleged that the incident occurred during the wedding procession of the Durgipur village head in Bihar, an event he claims was also attended by Ketakee Singh’s family. “They secretly filmed this to defame me. I have never done such things. I’m an old man now,” Babban Singh Raghuvanshi stated.
This comes as former IPS officer and president of the Azad Adhikar Sena, Amitabh Thakur, has called for legal action. In a letter to the Ballia Superintendent of Police, Amitabh Thakur described the visuals as “highly obscene” and “shameful” as he urged Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to order a thorough investigation into the video’s authenticity.
