Raut slams BJP for backing actor

Mumbai, September 13

Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut on Sunday said it was unfortunate that the BJP was backing Kangana Ranaut despite the actress likening Mumbai to Pak-occupied Kashmir, and added this was done with an eye on Bihar poll.

In his weekly column in Sena mouthpiece 'Saamana', Raut claimed there was a systematic effort to reduce the importance of Mumbai, and constantly defaming the city was part of that conspiracy. — PTI
