Former Congress MLA Shankar Pratap's son Sidharth Bundela has registered a complaint in an illegal sand mining case with the police here. The complaint was registered following a scuffle on Tuesday night, which the police said took place at around 10:30 pm when former Congress MLA Shankar Pratap's supporters stopped a dozen trucks carrying illegal sand.

"The sand was dispatched from Kurela Surajpura area and vandalised the vehicles, pelted stones, creating commotion in the area," Manmohan Singh Baghel, Sub-Divisional Police Officer, told ANI. The accused identified as Jaiveer Singh, Amit Singh, Shivam Bundela, Saurabh Bundela, Amit Dixit, Salman Khan, Rupendra, Farhan, Rajdeep, Shivam, and others, police further said.
