Jaipur, Jan 6 (NationPress) Former Rajasthan Minister Rajendra Gudha has caused a stir with his remarks regarding administrative officers, claiming that individuals who fear cockroaches in the bathroom become thanedaar (police station incharge), Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM), Deputy District Collector, Superintendent of Police, and others, while those who are bold enough to put their hands into snake or lizard burrows tend to fail their Class 10 examinations.
Gudha made these comments on Sunday in Gothra village, located in Jhunjhunu district, during a Kisan Sabha opposing the establishment of a Shree Cement factory.
The gathering discussed various issues, including the demand for local job opportunities.
However, the SDM Jai Singh denied permission for the meeting, citing a prohibition against protests within 300 meters of the factory.
This restriction is in accordance with an injunction from Nawalgarh senior civil judge issued on August 14, 2024.
The SDM cautioned that any breach of this order could result in legal consequences.
In defiance of the restrictions, farmers gathered on Sunday in front of the factory and conducted the Kisan Sabha, which saw participation from former Minister Rajendra Gudha.
During the gathering, Gudha equated the actions of the attendees to putting hands in a snake's hole.
Furthermore, the Minister criticized government officials, stating, 'They are individuals afraid of cockroaches. What will occur if this conflict escalates?'
His comments have intensified tensions between Gudha and the police administration, although authorities have managed to maintain order.
Former Minister Gudha warned that if company officials do not engage in dialogue with the farmers, a significant agitation will be initiated.
A delegation was later organized to meet with the cement company officials.
The discussions were fruitful, with company representatives promising to continue conversations to address the farmers' concerns.
However, Gudha asserted that if no tangible solutions are reached by January 26, the agitation will be significantly expanded.
