A road accident on April 16 in Karera, Shivpuri district, Madhya Pradesh, has led to a political uproar involving BJP MLA Pritam Lodhi. His son, Dinesh Lodhi, is accused of running over five individuals, including two women pedestrians and three motorcyclists, with a speeding Thar SUV. Initially, MLA Pritam Lodhi expressed support for the victims and stated that justice should prevail, emphasizing that public interest takes precedence over family ties. However, he later shifted to a confrontational stance, warning police not to overstep their authority and claiming that the investigation was being conducted under undue pressure. Dinesh Lodhi appeared at the police station in the same SUV, which was found to have illegal modifications and was unregistered. Despite the MLA's claims of facilitating the FIR registration and cooperation with authorities, the victims accused the Lodhi family of neglecting them after the incident. The police are continuing their investigation into the case.
