Sena respects women: Raut slams 'malicious people'

September 07, 2020 15:14

Taking a veiled dig at Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut, Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut on Monday said that some people with malicious intent are spreading misinformation that the party has insulted women.

Taking to Twitter, Raut said that those making these allegations should not forget that they have themselves insulted Mumbai and its deity Mumba Devi.

"Shiv Sena follows the ideology of great Hindutva icons Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and the great Maharana Pratap. They have taught us to respect women. But some with malicious intent are spreading misinformation that Shiv Sena has insulted women," Raut posted on Twitter.

"But one should not forget the fact that those making these allegations have themselves insulted Mumbai and our deity Mumba Devi. Shiv Sena will continue to fight for the pride of women, this is what our great Shiv Sena supremo has taught us," it added.

The development comes amid an ongoing war of words between Raut and Ranaut following her remarks that she doesn't feel safe in Mumbai after the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput. Earlier today, the Central government has approved "Y" level security for the Ranaut amid the ongoing controversy.
