Minister of State for Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises Babul Supriyo triggered a controversy during a public event for the differently-abled in Asansol, West Bengal. The Minister threatened to "break a man's leg" when he got distracted at an event. He was invited at an event organised to donate wheelchairs and other equipment for the differently-abled persons. Union Minister, Babul Supriyo said, “He has worked hard in past four years. I want to gift him a bouquet of flower. What happened to you? Any problem? I can break one of your legs and can give you a crutch. Go stand in the corner. Next time if this man moves than break his leg and give him a stick. Please applause for him”
