Brawl erupts between Karnataka legislators in meeting
Two politicians from different parties in Karnataka, India, had a big fight during a meeting.
They were arguing about land that was taken illegally.
One of them almost hit the other, but a policeman stopped him.
The meeting was then stopped because of the fight.
This happened in a place called Bidar, and the politicians are from the BJP and Congress parties.
The fight was so bad that the meeting had to be called off.
A brawl erupted between BJP MLA Siddu Patil and Congress MLC Bhimrao Patil during a Karnataka Development Programme meeting in Bidar.
The argument started over a land encroachment issue in the Humnabad constituency.
The Congress MLC was restrained by a policeman and other leaders after attempting to strike the BJP MLA.
The District In-charge Minister, Eshwara Khandre, adjourned the meeting indefinitely due to the chaos.
The incident was captured on video, showing the two leaders yelling and pointing fingers at each other.
