One high-profile leader, currently a minister in the state cabinet with a strong reputation, felt restless amidst the ongoing election activities and sought a brief escape. He and his inner circle crafted a plan to unwind in Goa, arranging accommodations and other necessities. Upon arrival, the leader was expectedly joined by two associates from Mumbai source says. After retreating to his room with the visitors, the leader was confronted with demands for immediate payment. When he hesitated to make a digital transaction to avoid a paper trail, the associates became aggressive and began causing damage to the room. The hotel management intervened, ultimately facilitating a cash payment to resolve the situation. Despite this resolution, the hotel requested the leader to leave immediately due to the spreading of news and the possibility of local news reporters arriving. The incident appeared in the local newspaper the next day, though it did not attract significant attention source says.
