Delhi BJP leaders on Thursday fꦓiled a complaint with the police ꦬagainst TMC MP Mohua Moitra and Canada-based filmmaker Leena Manimekalai, alleging them of "hurting" sentiments of Hindus.
The complaint received from the BJP leaders at Parliament Street police station was forwarded to the Cyber Cell of Delhi Police for further action, a senior ꦿpolice officer said.
The BJP leaders also demanded that TMC chief Mamata Banerjee should dismi꧅ss Moitra from ওthe party.
"Moitra has hurt sentiments of Hindus by using derogatory language against Goddess Kali," Delhi BJP vice president Rajan Tiw𝐆ari alleged.
Moitra on Tuesday stirred a controversy with her remarks that she has every ri💟ght as "an individual to imagine Goddess Kali as a meat-eating and alcohol-accepting goddess", as every person has the right to worship god and goddess in his or her own way.
Manimekalai came to the center 🙈of a h🦩uge storm over her documentary 'Kaali'. The filmmaker is facing several FIRs following outrage over the poster of “Kaali” showing the goddess smoking and holding an LGBTQ flag.
The way Manimekalai h🥂as depicted goddess Kali in a poster has hurt th♔e Hindus, said BJP leaders Harish Khurana and Harihar Raghuvanshi who lodged the complaint on the behalf of the party.
