A 30-year-old Karni Sena activist from Haryana was arrested for allegedly raising objectionable slogans against Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan during a protest earlier this week in Bhopal, a police official said on Saturday.

"Okendra Rana was held from his home in Bhiwani in Haryana on Thursday. He has been charged under Indian Penal Code sections 294 (uttering obscene words) and 353 (assault or criminal force to deter public servant from discharge of his duty)," said Assistant Commissioner of Police Aditya Tiwari.
        
"During the Karni Sena protest at Jamboree Maidan in BHEL township, a video surfaced on social media in which Rana is seen raising slogans using obscene language against the CM," he said.
        
Meanwhile, another case related to alleged objectionable sloganeering against the CM has been registered against an unidentified person in Gwalior, Crime Branch Additional Superintendent of Police Rajesh Dandotiya said.
