During the event, it was mentioned to Chauhan that members of the Dewasi community held child marriages, during which they faced interference by police.

“We have ‘satta’ [power] and ‘sangathan’ [state government] at our disposal. We won’t let the police intervene in child marriages,” she is seen saying in the video.

The election commission officer of the district said that the matter is being probed and an action will be taken if the video is found to be genuine.
