KANPUR: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Samajwadi Party (SP) corporators came to blows over allegations of 'credit theft' for civic works, in the general house of Kanpur Municipal Corporation (KMC) on Tuesday.
The altercation, which lasted for nearly 20 minutes, saw the two parties jostling violently, with some on the verge of exchanging punches.
The tension began when BJP corporator Vikas Jaiswal from Ward 91 accused an SP MLA of falsely taking credit for the completion of civic projects funded by the BJP. Jaiswal claimed that the SP MLA had affixed his name to a plaque for works carried out in the ward, with an expenditure of Rs 30 lakh.
