Kangana Ranaut and Uddhav Thackeray

Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut in a series of tweets on Monday hit back at Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, who criticised the actor and her home state Himachal Pradesh at the annual Dussehra rally.

On Sunday, Thackeray addressed the annual Dussehra rally of the Shiv Sena party where he referred to Ranaut’s infamous tweet without mentioning her name. He said people who have no means of livelihood come to Mumbai and earn their bread and butter here, abuse the city by terming it as Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK). If someone feels Mumbai is PoK, then unfortunately it is Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s failure, not us, said the Shiv Sena chief.

There are drugs everywhere and people are trying to malign the image of the city by calling it a hub of drugs, he said referring to Ranaut’s statement over late actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s drug probe case, which claimed Mumbai is the city of drugs. Thackeray said ganja fields are in your state, not in our Maharashtra, further pointing at the actor’s home state Himachal Pradesh.

On Monday morning, Ranaut took to Twitter and responded to Thackeray. She called the chief minister the worst product of nepotism. The Shiv Sena leaders Sanjay Raut and Thackeray abused me, and claimed that I won’t get food and shelter in my state. I am your son’s age, this how you speak to a self made single woman, tweeted Ranaut.

She said she is not drunk on her father’s power and wealth like Thackeray. If she wanted to be a nepotism product, she could have stayed in Himachal since she hails from a renowned family, the actor said.

Ranaut attacked Thackeray for having a vengeful, myopic and ill-informed view about Himachal Pradesh. She said just how beautiful Himachal belongs to every Indian, similarly the opportunities offered by Mumbai belong to her. She warned the chief minister to not snatch the democratic rights.

The chief minister should be ashamed of being a public servant as he indulges in petty fights, uses power to insult, damage and humiliate people. He doesn’t deserve the chair he has acquired by playing dirty politics, said Ranaut adding that his filthy speeches are a vulgar display of incompetence.

Calling the chief minister a petty person, she questioned the audacity of Thackeray. She said he is just a public servant, why is he behaving like he owns the state. When he will be out, someone else will come in his place to serve the state, she said.

Meanwhile, a complaint has been filed against Ranaut at a Mumbai court for spreading hate, breaking brotherhood, integrity of the country through her provoking hate speeches given by her. The complaints include several of her tweets in which she had targeted politicians, Maharashtra police, and Bollywood personalities from the film industry. The metropolitan magistrate 65th court of Mumbai has set November 10 as the next date of the hearing in the matter.

Rahul Gandhi on Friday accused central agencies of working at the behest of the BJP-led government at the Centre and warned them that strict action will be taken against these institutions when the government changes.

The senior Congress leader asserted that if the institutions had done their jobs properly there would have been no problem. He added that these agencies should think that some day the BJP government will change and after that there will be action. He further said that it is his guarantee that the action will be so strong that no institution will dare to do such things again.

Taking to social media platform X, Rahul Gandhi wrote that when the government changes, action will definitely be taken against those who destroyed the democracy. Mentioning that it is his guarantee, Rahul Gandhi said that such actions will be taken that no one will dare to do all this again.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s statement follows after the income tax department’s fresh notices asking the party to pay Rs 1,823.08 crore. The party has accused the ruling BJP of indulging in tax terrorism to financially cripple the opposition party ahead of Lok Sabha polls.

While addressing a press conference at the AICC headquarters along with Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh, party treasurer Ajay Maken alleged that the BJP is in serious violation of income-tax laws. He said the I-T department should raise a demand of Rs 4,617.58 crore from the saffron party for such violations.

Ajay Maken said that the income-tax returns filed by Congress for eight years have been reopened on baseless and manufactured grounds to levy illegal I-T demand orders totalling thousands of crores of rupees. He stated that the timing of the I-T department’s action in February and March, days before and even days after the Lok Sabha election were announced on March 16, speaks for itself about the mala-fide nature of these actions.

Furthermore, the opposition party will hold nationwide protests over the weekend against fresh income tax demand of over Rs 1,800 crore, which it has described as an egregious attack on democracy and imposition of tax terrorism amid the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri on Friday compared Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s wife and former Bihar chief minister Rabri Devi, hinting that she may be gearing up to take on her husband’s post. The Union Minister was speaking to the media during the inauguration of Delhi BJP’s election office.

The BJP leader further took a dig at Delhi Chief Minister for forming an alliance with the most corrupt party against whom they had started an anti-corruption movement with social activist Anna Hazare. The minister made the statement in response to a question regarding Sunita Kejriwal, who earlier today launched a whatsapp campaign advocating for support for her husband, who is in ED custody in connection with the Excise policy case.

In a video Sunita Kejriwal said her husband has challenged the most corrupt and dictatorial forces in the country and asked people to support her husband through their prayers and blessings. She issued 2 WhatsApp numbers 8297324624 and 9700297002 through which people can send their blessings, prayers or any other messages to the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo and she will communicate those to him.

She said yesterday Kejriwal had presented his side in the court, and the entire country heard it. She requested the people to listen to it if they had not listened till now. She added whatever Kejriwal had said in front of the court required a lot of courage. She said her husband is a true patriot. She requested the people to participate in the Kejriwal ko Aashirwad campaign.

BJP leader Manoj Tiwari also took a dig at Aam Aami Party asking why only Kejriwal’s wife is coming out in his support, and not the people of Delhi. He said the Honorable Justice of High Court said they cannot stop Arvind Kejriwals’ arrest that they are surprised why he hasn’t been arrested yet?
