A clash broke out between the supporters of BJP MP Rekha Arun Verma and MLA Shashank Trivedi in Sitapur of Uttar Pradesh on Saturday over blanket distribution.

The brawl started when Verma and Trivedi reached Maholi Tehsil office to distribute blankets among the needy. The supporters disputed over taking credit for the distribution.

Upset with the arrangements, Verma threatened the sub divisional magistrate (SDM) present at the spot, saying, "If you will create such mess, then you will not be able to stay here even for two days".

She was also seen threatening Trivedi with her footwear in front of the SDM. The supporters of the MLA also picked up the table and tried to throw it on Verma's supporters.
