Rajasthan Minister Receives Death Threat, FIR Registered: Cops

Jaipur:

An FIR has been registered against an unidentified person for allegedly issuing a death threat to Rajasthan minister Babulal Kharadi, police said on Friday.

Babulal Kharadi, who holds the portfolio of tribal area development, got a death threat on the comment section of his Instagram profile three days back, they said.

When the minister's son read the comment, he informed Kharadi about it and they moved to the police.

The unidentified person threatened to kill the minister while accusing him of converting tribal people to Hinduism.

Kharadi informed Udaipur Inspector General Ajay Pal Lamba and Superintendent of Police Yogesh Goyal regarding the matter and later an FIR was registered in Udaipur's Kotda Police Station.

Police said that the matter was being investigated.
