BJP MLA Kanwar Lal Meena Disqualified from Rajasthan Assembly After Conviction

BJP MLA Kanwar Lal Meena has been disqualified from the Rajasthan Legislative Assembly. Mr. Meena represented the Anta constituency in Baran district.

The decision was taken by Assembly Speaker Vasudev Devnani following Meena’s surrender in the Manoharthana Court. A formal notification was issued by the Assembly



Secretariat.

The disqualification stems from a 2005 case related to the Sarpanch elections, in which Meena was accused of threatening the then Sub-Divisional Officer with a pistol. The court had sentenced him to three years of imprisonment. After the Supreme Court rejected his appeal, Meena surrendered before the Manoharthana Court.
