Haryana BJP MP claims canter-truck chased his vehicle, tried hitting it

BJP's Rajya Sabha MP Ram Chander Jangra said he had a narrow escape after a canter-truck allegedly chased his SUV from Sirsa district to his home in Meham and tried to hit him.

A security personnel accompanying the MP filed a police complaint after the incident took place on Thursday evening.

Giving details of the incident, Jangra told PTI on Friday that he was returning from Sirsa district to Meham in Rohtak when his security personnel accompanying him found that there was a traffic jam near Meham's Old Bus stand area.

Jangra's gunman got down from the SUV and tried to find out why vehicles were not moving ahead.

"He found out that a canter truck in the middle of the road was not moving ahead causing the traffic bottleneck. My gunman tried to get the traffic cleared and told the truck driver to move along one side of the road and also allow other vehicles to pass," Jangra said.

"However, the truck driver misbehaved with my gunman, who, however, did not want to escalate the matter
