After a dispute between BJP MLA Ashish Shelar and Mumbai Mayor Kishori Pednekar, the mayor has now received a death threat through a letter.
As per the report by ABP Maza, the letter also insulted the mayor using obscene language. The mayor said that she will lodge a complaint about the same.
What is happening between Kishori Pednekar and Ashish Shelar?
Maharashtra BJP MLA Ashish Shelar was arrested in a case registered against him for his alleged objectionable remarks on Mumbai Mayor. He was later released on bail.
Notably, Shelar was booked for speaking in a press conference, wherein he allegedly criticised Pednekar for visiting the site of a cylinder blast after 72 hours. “Where were you (the mayor) sleeping for so many hours?” Shelar had asked.
Taking offence to the word ‘sleeping’ Pednekar had written a letter to the home minister, seeking action against Shelar.
