A video has gone viral on social media showing a relative of Uttar Pradesh Minister Somendra Tomar engaging in a fight with a flower vendor after a heated argument over traffic on a narrow road in Meerut.<\/p>\n

The fight, which was caught on CCTV of a shop, broke out Saturday afternoon when Mr Tomar’s nephew, Nikhil Tomar, who is said to be associated with the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), was travelling in his Mahindra Scorpio on a jam-packed street, which housed many flower shops.<\/p>\n

As Nikhil was attempting to navigate the congested road, one of the owners allegedly asked an e-rickshaw driver coming from the other direction to stop so that he wouldn’t hit the flower pots kept outside the shop.<\/p>\n

Nikhil, who was stuck on that stretch for over a minute\u00a0and was being assisted by a friend, then asked the e-rickshaw driver to move. It then led to an argument between him and the shop owner.<\/p>\n

Seconds later, their verbal argument turned into a physical fight and they were seen exchanging blows and pulling each other’s hair. They eventually end up cracking the flower pots.<\/p>\n

The altercation continued for over four minutes before Nikhil and his friend left in his car.<\/p>\n

The two sides then went to a police station but later mutually decided not to take any further action.<\/p>\n
