However, Khattar did not seem bothered with the incident and was seen moving ahead with a smiling face while showering rose petals to the ocean of supporters gathered at the event.
Notably, this is not the first incident when the BJP leader has lost his cool and misbehaved with a party worker. In February, another video footage was doing rounds on social media, purperotedly showing Khattar shouting at an elderly couple, who inquired him about a Rs 19 lakh fraud case.
The Haryana chief minister did not event spare the media and once told a scribe that their job is to ask questions and not to accuse the government. Khattar's statement comes after a journalist asked him about a delay in addressal of grievances received on 'CM window'.
