New Delhi [India], March 25 (ANI): Congress leader Rashid Alvi has said that if Supriya Shrinate is saying that her account was hacked and someone else has made the comment on Kangana Ranaut, then the government should probe the matter to identify the real perpetrator.
"It is very unfortunate to make such comments about any woman. If Supriya is saying that her account was hacked, then the government should do some investigation. Action should be taken against whoever made this comment," Alvi said.
"The Government of India is with BJP and it can easily find out whose action this is," he added.
Responding to criticism from the BJP regarding her purported post on Kangana Ranaut, Congress leader Supriya Shrinate clarified that the "objectionable post" was generated by a parody account on social media, which she promptly reported to X.
In a video posted by her, Supriya Shrinate said that as soon as she came to know, she deleted that post from her account.
"Many people have access to my Facebook and Instagram accounts. Someone from them made an extremely inappropriate post today. As soon as I came to know, I deleted that post. Everyone who knows me also knows very well that I can never make personal and indecent comments towards any woman. I wanted to know how this happened," she said.
Supriya also pointed out that it is not the first time that someone has made these kinds of comments from her account.
"This has not happened for the first time. Many confusing comments have been made in my name in the past also. I will close this account also. But I want to say clearly that I am against personal comments. I believe in fighting the battle of ideology but I cannot use objectionable words against women," she said.
The purported post by the Congress leader attracted sharp criticism from the BJP.
Shehzad Poonawalla said that the comments made by Shrinate were despicable.
"The comments by Supriya Shrinate on Kangana Team are despicable! Should be immediately sacked. Will Priyanka Gandhi speak up? Will Kharge ji sack her! Where is the "Hathras" lobby now? First they justified Sandeshkhali, then Lal Singh getting a ticket from Congress and now this," he posted on X. (ANI)
