Bollywood actress Swara Bhaskar has been accused in a cyber cell of Kolkata police for hurting religious sentiments on Twitter over the Taliban issue in Afghanistan. Raj Chowdhury, a resident of Park Circus, lodged a written complaint with the Deputy Commissioner (Cyber Cell) Kolkata police on Thursday morning.
On August 17, actress Swara Bhaskar tweeted on her verified Twitter handle, comparing the country’s radical Hindutva with Taliban activities in Afghanistan. Swara also compared Hindutva with militancy. She wrote on Twitter, “We cant be okay with hindutva terror & be all shocked & devastated at taliban terror .. & we cant be chill with #taliban terror and then be all indignant about #hindutva terror (sic)! Our humanitarian & ethical values should not be based on the identity of the oppressor or oppressed.”
