Raipur police have registered a case against Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel’s father Nand Kumar Baghel for allegedly making derogatory comments against a community.

After a controversy erupted over the alleged remarks of his father, the chief minister said he was pained by such comments and asserted that nobody was above the law.

Following a complaint filed by the ‘Sarv Brahmin Samaj’, the police registered an FIR against 86-year-old Nand Kumar Baghel.

The outfit in its complaint alleged that the CM’s father recently appealed to people to boycott Brahmins by terming them as foreigners, and also asked people to not let them enter their villages.
