A police complaint has been lodged against Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar’s daughter—Suranya Aiyar by BJP leader for her post on social media in which she allegedly condemned Ayodhya Ram Temple consecration ceremony.
The complaint was filed on Saturday by BJP leader Ajay Agarwal, at Delhi’s Cyber Crime Police station, news agency ANI reported.
In his complaint, Agarwal alleged that Suranya Aiyar made "objectionable remarks" on different social media platforms on January 20, against the consecration ceremony.
“Ms Suryanya Aiyar has posted a seriously objectionable statement on Facebook, YouTube and other social media platforms on January 20 and other dates. Please go through this entire clip and register an FIR under section 153-A (for promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion) and other sections of IPC and other acts as you deem appropriate after watching the 36-minute video,” Agarwal said in his complaint.
Suranya Aiyar Facebook post:
On January 19, Suranya Aiyar had written on Facebook that she would be observing a fast for three days, starting from January 22, in support for the "Muslims of India" against what she called was being done “in the name of Hinduism and nationalism in Ayodhya”.
Controversy:
Suranya Aiyar’s post triggered a controversy which led the Resident Welfare Association (RWA) of Delhi’s Jangpura.
RWA wrote a letter to Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar, and his daughter asking them to move out of the colony, for disturbing peace and harmony.
“In case you still think, what you have done in protesting against the consecration of Ram Mandir at Ayodhya, we would suggest you kindly move out to another colony, where people and RWA's can turn (a) blind eye to such hatred,” it said.
