A video showing 73-year-old BJP MLA Devendra Kumar Jain touching the feet of 31-year-old Mahaaryaman Scindia, son of Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia, has gone viral. The incident occurred during Jain's birthday celebration at the 69th National School Games in Shivpuri. While some social media users interpreted the gesture as respect, others viewed it as political subservience. MLA Jain stated the act was a personal expression of gratitude and cultural respect, not prohibited by law or party rules, and that he was moved by Mahaaryaman's gestures on his birthday.
