Kangana Ranaut questions Sonia Gandhi’s silence, asks her to intervene

Actor Kangana Ranaut on Friday sought Congress interim President Sonia Gandhi’s intervention and her asked to take note of the ‘treatment’ being meted out to her by the Maharashtra Government, in which her party is a coalition member.

“Dear respected honourable Congress president Sonia Gandhi ji being a woman aren’t you anguished by the treatment I am given by your government in Maharashtra? Can you not request your Government to uphold the principles of the Constitution given to us by Dr. Ambedkar?” the actress tweeted.

“You have grown up in the west and lived here in India. You may be aware of the struggles of women. History will judge your silence and indifference when your own Government is harassing women and ensuring a total mockery of law and order. I hope you will intervene,” she added in a subsequent tweet.

This comes a day after Ranaut slammed Maharashtra chief minister Uddhav Thackeray for carrying out a demolition drive at her Mumbai office. Ranaut has been making headlines with her statements about the Hindi film industry after actor Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead in his Mumbai apartment. She was provided with Y-plus category security by the Union Home Ministry in the wake of the row over her remarks.
