BJP Files Complaint On Balakrishna For Abusing PM

The Telangana BJP severely condemned the "abusive" language used by Telugu film hero and TDP MLA Nandamuri Balakrishna against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and lodged a complaint with the police today.

A delegation of party leaders led by BJP MLC and Greater Hyderabad party president Naraparaju Ramchander Rao went to the Osmania University police station and lodged a complaint against Balakrishna stating that the Hindupur MLA had used profanities against the Prime Minister.

Directing such language towards the Prime Minister was a grave crime, Rao said. "While expressing a grievance, if any, in a public forum is the right of any individual, there is a need to maintain decorum while articulating it, especially when the grievances involve constitutional functionaries and people of eminence. Narendra Modi is the Prime Minister of the country and a highly revered leader of the people, and the language used by the MLA deeply hurt the sentiments of people in the entire country," he claimed.
