A purported video of supporters picking up chairs and throwing them at the party office in Rajsamand has gone viral.
Supporters of BJP dissidents allegedly damaged furniture in the party's Rajsamand district office and burnt election campaign-related material on the road along with tyres to protest against ticket distribution for the upcoming assembly elections. The police said no case has been registered in this connection yet.

Soon after the incident, the BJP's state disciplinary committee suspended four members from the primary membership of the party on charges of indiscipline for damaging property and violent protests.
According to a letter issued by the committee's chairman, Omkar Singh Lakhawat, the Rajsamand district president, Ajay Prajapat, Devi Lal Jatiya, Himmat Kumawat and Mukesh Sharma have been suspended.
