Legal Measures Initiated in Anandapur

Sreelekha Mitra, a prominent Bengali actress, faces legal scrutiny following the dissemination of an image depicting Prime Minister Narendra Modi in a manner described as distasteful. Keya Ghosh, a leader within the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), formally submitted a complaint against Mitra on Sunday at the Anandapur Police Station.

Current reports indicate that the legal pressure on Mitra extends beyond a single jurisdiction. Authorities have received similar complaints at multiple police stations encompassing various districts, reflecting widespread party disapproval of the content.
