Union Minister's Daughter Harassed in Maharashtra, Police Arrest One Suspect

Raksha Khadse demands action after her daughter and friends were followed, filmed, and threatened during a public event in Jalgaon.

The incident occurred during the Sant Muktai Yatra in Kothali village, where a group of boys harassed Union Minister Raksha Khadse's daughter and her friends on February 28.
The accused reportedly followed the girls, took photos and videos without consent, and clashed with security personnel who intervened.
One suspect has been arrested, and police are searching for six others; charges include stalking, molestation, and violations under the POCSO and IT Acts.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis condemned the act, calling it unacceptable, and promised strict action against those involved.
Khadse and opposition leaders raised concerns about the state's law-and-order situation, questioning the safety of ordinary citizens if such incidents occur under police protection.
