Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar has said that he has no influence in the recent matter relating to internet personality Elvish Yadav and asserted that the latter will face the music if his involvement in the snake venom supply case is established.

"The police will take action in the case. We don't have any say in this. If he (Elvish Yadav) is at fault, then he will be punished," said Khattar.

Khattar had shared the stage with Elvish and congratulated him following the latter's victory in Bigg Boss OTT Season 2. The Haryana CM drew social media ire after the event, as netizens questioned Khattar why sports icons from the state aren't felicitated in a similar manner.

"When I woke up, I saw the FIR in which it was written that Maneka Gandhi's NGO (People for Animals) had filed this case. That lady was saying that I roam around with snakes around my neck. All that was for the shooting of a song and nothing else. I will not spoil my name and my family's name by indulging in all these illegal activities. If I have even one percent involvement in this case, I will surrender myself, whether the punishment is 10 years or 100 years. Everyone knows that my level has not fallen so low that I will do this kind of work," Elvish said.
