'Don't stoop so low': Activist reacts to complaint over remarks on Hindu deities
Two advocates filed police complaints against a CJP activist and her father. These complaints allege objectionable remarks were made about Hindu deities online. The activist has hit back, calling the demands illegal and unethical. She stated that her father should not be sent to jail for such matters. The advocates are seeking police action and further complaints against the duo.
Delhi: An activist from CJP has responded to two advocates who filed police complaints against her and her father for allegedly making derogatory remarks about Hindu deities on social media. The activist told ANI, "They are raising illegal demands about sending my father to jail. Don't stoop so low." The two advocates approached the police after accusing the CJP activist and her father of making objectionable comments about Hindu deities on X (formerly Twitter).
Advocate Amita Sachdeva had previously warned the activist to delete her posts, stating that she found an old tweet where she referred to Goddess Durga as "vaishya" and mocked Goddess Saraswati. Sachdeva gave the activist and her father until 1pm on Saturday to remove the posts, but they failed to do so, leading her to file the complaint.
Another advocate, Anurag Gupta, also filed a complaint, expressing concern over the mockery of Hindus and their deities. If the police fail to act, the advocates plan to escalate the matter to the Delhi Commissioner and potentially the Supreme Court.
