In the video, Phogat could be seen hitting Sultan repeatedly with the slipper, while saying: “You have no right to live.”
After thrashing him, she was heard asking the police to register a complaint against him.
Phogat had unsuccessfully contested the 2019 assembly elections from the Mandi Adampur and lost to Congress candidate Kuldeep Bishnoi, son of former Chief Minister Bhajan Lal.
Confirming the incident, Superintendent of Police in Hisar, Ganga Ram Punia, said the police received a complaint from Sultan Singh and appropriate action would be initiated against Phogat.
Congress national spokesman Randeep Singh Surjewala tweeted: “The market committee secretary was thrashed like an animal.”
“These acts (have been) done by a BJP leader. Is it a crime to do a government job? Will (Chief Minister Manohar Lal) Khattar take action against Phogat? Will the media still remain silent?” he added.
