Congress MP Nitesh Rane arrested for smashing Goa toll booth
Congress MP Nitesh Rane has been arrested for smashing a Goa transport department-operated border toll booth near here, police said on Tuesday.
An official said that Rane, Lok Sabha member from Maharashtra's Sindhudurg constituency which borders the state, was on his way to Goa when his entourage was stopped at a toll booth in Dhargal, 30 km from here, for payment as a part of a new entry system put in place by the state for vehicles registered outside Goa.
The enraged Rane along with his supporters tried to assault the occupants of the booth and smash the boom barrier and the toll operator cabin as well.
He was later picked up by police from a hotel in Calangute which is operated by a company owned by the Rane family.
A senior police official confirmed Rane's arrest.
"A first information report has been registered at the Pernem police station," the official said.
